Door Hanging
The driver side door on my 91 vert is not aligned with the car. The top is in about 3/16th's of an inch and the bottom is out about 5/8ths. This is causing a water leak at the door/dash connection, which puts water on the speakers and floor.
I have attemped to loosen the hinge bolts on the door side and the door has not adjusted. I tried doing the adjustment while the door was closed and open. While the door did adjust a little, and closes better, it was not enough to correct the alignment.
Should I just pull the door off the car, remove the weather striping and start from scratch, or is there a really great trick to get the door aligned process? That is if it is possible at all?
Thanks
