I put an aftermarket door on my father's green 72'. We could never get it to open and close like the factory door on the passenger side. I believe some of that was due to the thinner gauge metal. I would use a factory door at all costs.

I actually found a guy in town that has a perfect GM door that he said he'd sell me for $200 so, I'll get that put on when I get it.

Last night I got the front brakes bled and ordered sound deadner for the the rest of the car. Also ordered the rear bumper so I can make sure I don't need to move or trim anything before I start on the bodywork. Still moving forward just not much visually.
