The drivers door on my 73 is a good 1/4 inch lower than the top of the rear fender, bottom of door looks pretty straight compared to rockerpanel. also where drivers side fender meets windshield post is slightly lower compared to passenger side. Is this a body mount problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks! (the rest of the door lines up pretty well)

Well dude, I had to replace my drivers side door...its still hanging crooked after 3-4 hours of
the shop that is going to paint it will also rehang it, and my best advice is to spend the 60$ and get it hung right, or just ignore it, the fit is tough to get right since the designs specs were very loose at GM in the first place.

Thanks for the advice. I measured from the floor to the top of the wheel well on both sides and the drivers side was about 1/4 of an inch higher and that is about how much lower the top of the door is compared to the fender. This is why I am questioning the body mounts or something else?
I just might have a body man look at it. It might save some
Thanks for the Advice, Greatly Appreciated!
