Door panel swap
Is it possible mount 79-82 door panels on a 77 and still be able to connect everything up and working without having to swap out internal door parts. Thanks , Bob Sorry, wrong forum. Don't read this unthinkable post. :nono:

The doors are basically the same. GM replacements fit a multitude of years, but there still would be a lot of parts that would have to be changed out. It would be easier to stay with the correct one.

I had to cut out the glass reinforcement on the inside of the '58 door, and using measurements from the '57, relocated it and glassed it back in to the proper position so that the new '57 door panel fit perfectly. I needed no new internal parts. A lot of work though. :smash:
