wish i had of taken pics of the hq statesman doors that are unique to power windows...you would be scratchin your heads tryin to figure out where the holes for the manual regs are????...:errf:

The problem I have now is the HQ door skin is not the same HX door (white one). The exterior lip below the window has a rounder edge. While the HQ door is more square and had a chrome strip.

Pity because the green door is rust free, while the white one will require welding. Maybe it'll be cheaper to keep looking for a pair of matching doors.

or you can just find a damaged hj to wb door and remove the internal pressing at the front and then weld it into the hq door, thats what i did..

dunno whats goin on there as they are the same outer skins from hq to wb....part number is the same..;)

one of the skins is aftermarket maybe? they can be quite dodgy sometimes.. lol

Andrew. Is one of the doors off the HZ Van I sold you?

I wonder if maybe the doors on it could have been aftermarket as they appeared to be black originally. And dogey painted white. I dont know for sure never even thought of it.

Like Greg said. The skins are the same HQ-WB

Both doors are from the HX you sold me ;)

The door was not black, it was a dark metallic Green, and welded lugs below the window for chrome strip.
The White door is definitely factory original.

I will take a profile photo tomorrow of the doors to show the different edges.

ah ok. Rust wise the white one doesnt look too bad. most original doors you find will have rust. I have a few here that dont but 2 of them are off a car that hasnt seen the road for about 15 years. =)
