Got this one a while back but I didn't like the factory color so I repainted it Inca Gold.

Nice looking ride! but please do it a favor and line up that passenger door!! takes you about 20 or 30 minutes to do.....nothing more distracting on a nice clean car than an improperly hung door. :P

The photos look nice, but could look a lot better if you used a polarizing filter (hint hint)

Before you do any adjusting, check your hinges for play, if they are bad now is the time to replace the bushings, then adjust the door to get it right, I just did the hinges on my 72 wagon, it's not that hard if you take them off the car, then when you're done you can get that line straight. its not hard if you have someone to hold the door for you while you loosen and tighten the bolts.....
