    Anybody know if a 1950 chevy fleetline 2dr door will interchange with a '51 chevy biz coupe door? They look the same. Just hoping someone knows for sure.

    Thanks.

    they are different above the beltline. the fleetline roof is lower, and the door tops also taper down towards the rear.

    I have a perfect fleetline door I'm goin to use on my coupe, gonna cut the top off my dented coupe door and weld it on the fleetline door.

    yup had to do the same thing on my poncho

    2 door sedan doors fit horribly in the front like where the radius is by the vent window.and are about an inch or so higher
    fast back doors fit nice in the front but are about 2 inches to low
    and coupe doors fit perfect on a coupe for some reason haha !!

    if ya need some posts let me kno i should have some from the fun and games i went through!!
