Haven't been on the site in a while - I was blocked off-and-on til the server move. I generally "surf" on my tablet, and I hate posting from it.
Also, been out of town with work, etc, so I haven't had a lot of time to work on the 57. However, I am working on the A-pillar's now. I keep finding more and more rust. Decided to buy new cowl panels (has the hinge mounts) as mine were swiss cheese once I stripped them - they both also had a "square" cut out of each one and welded back - no clue what that was for. I have the driver's side mocked up with sheetmetal screws.
Does anyone have good measurements of the door opening on a 57 hardtop? My rockers and floor were so far gone... I hung a door on the passenger side and it's "close" but I just want to double check.
