    Hey guys, looking for some advise on where to put the poppers on my 48 Ford Tudor sedan. Seeing if anyone else has put them in and where they put them.

    I was thinking of mounting them to the same wall that the hinges were on, but not sure if it will work

    If your talking the spring poppers that's where I mount them. I will use the stiffest ones, and sometimes they might need to be shaved down a tad depending on your door jamb tolerance. Make sure you you check the inside of the door some places are better than others to mount the popper

    Older guy locally has a pretty nice '46 Business Coupe, shaved the handles, I told him about the poppers.
    He said he didn't need 'em, both door jambs were sprung from them swinging past the door brakes, and would 'pop' open when released. I said we could fix that, he said "Yeah, so I can need those poppers?"

    Some people...most of 'em live right here...

    Well after many conversations, the door jamb seems to be the best space, guess we'll find out!
