1951 door fit
 

I just got a 51 delux and the passenger door doesn't fit well. There's barely enough room to clear in the front and a little over lap in the rear. Not real sure the latches are able to turn enough to hold it very well. Is there a way to a just or do they just fit poorly?

loosen all the door hinge bolts and see if you can get enough free play to adjust the door, if not its floor jack time and 2x4s put in strategic places to bend the hinges if possible,
