1931 Coupe doors

[FordToughChevyStuff]

Anybody know of a good place to search for doors? Need both sides. Recently picked up a 31 Coupe and it came with sedan doors which don't line up correctly.

Also, what is the best way to identify that a door will fit the 31 Coupe so I don't end up buy something that wont fit!

Thanks guys

A coupe door has a large circular impression around the inside window crank handle. A sedan/pick-up door inner structure is straight. The attached picture is a coupe.

Will 1930 Pickup doors fit a 1931 Coupe as far as outside appearance?

No, 30-31 Sedan & pick-up doors are interchangeable only between sedans & pick-ups, but are too long for a coupe. Coupe doors are only for a coupe, no interchange.
There is a good resale market for sedan/pick-up doors once you find Coupe doors.

Appreciate the info, I figured the Coupe's doors were unique to themselves. Any tips on where to find Coupe doors? I have checked craigslist and ebay with no luck so far!

Be sure to keep an eye on the Swap Meet section here on the Fordbarn. Stuff like that pops up all the time. I think you can even post "wanted" notices there.

This Coupe doors was listed a few months back. No idea if it is any good or still available, I just did a quick search out of curiosity.

I'll second Bill's. He knows his stuff and he's got several barns full of original pieces. If you're coming to Hershey, Bill's is about 1.45 north up the river.

Besides the different width the top hinge is down 3" from the top on the coupe. It's 4" on the 2dr/pickup. A lot of people don't believe this. Next show bring a tape and see for yourself.
