Corvette doors
I have a friend who needs new doors for his 70 vette and I have a 77 parts car. He is in Arizona and I am in Nevada. I want to make sure they will work before I send them to him. Anybody have a good answer. Thanks Don

The weatherstrip is the same, the basic door panel is the same, the glass and all the channels are the same as is the skin.

FWIW: send your 77 door key when you ship. His key is not likely to work on your doors.

The internals on the 68 door is different and I'm not sure I'd do that. The wipes on the outer part of the door are way different and way more expensive to replace. The push button system was a one year only and they are kind of a pain to work on let alone get parts if something should break.

10-4 Wilcox. I will pass on getting '69 doors, but will be hitting you up for some '68 door panels sooner or later, I have arthritis in my left hip, and the door pulls(and remote mirror control-that's going bye-bye as well) are right where my knee wants to be when I stretch my leg back and forth while driving.

You might just want remove the remote and if you have deluxe trim just replace the upper metal trim and if not then you'd be stuck with replacing the entire panel with one from your year.
