Default Re: Twisted doors on 69 Camaro

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: bluel78</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I resolved this problem by using a block of wood between the door and jamb at the top of the door and using a ratchet strap on the bottom. The strap could go to the other door or use the seat belt anchor hole. This tip works good to form new weatherstrip as well. Dustin </div></div>

Yeah, I think you are on to something. I woke up in the middle of the night thinking of something like this. Actually pictured a chain, but the strap would probably be safer.
Because the body is so light right now, being down to the bare shell, I am afraid pushing on a 2x4 at the bottom of the door, I could knock it off the jack stands. So, will do something like you are describing. Thanks.
