In the 90’s GM had a clearance sale on Square body parts and I purchased two new doors for $90 each. After installing I found the top and a pillar gaps large and have never been able to adjust the gap out. I believe the parts sell off was due to the doors being the end of a run and the quality was not as good as earlier runs. I just figure at least they are totally rust free. Side note I was going to remove drip rails but since I could not get the gap down I left them on so the gap is not as noticeable.

Yes, I'm glad he kept it, I learned to drive in it and we have a lot of memories in it. I forgot to mention that in around 1990 I rebuilt the original turbo 350 that was never touched before me. It was missing the brake band. I remember the truck would never "brake" while off the gas and decelerating. I put one in it though. He bought a Chevelle Malibu in 74 also but I rolled it when I was in high school, ha.
