Suicide doors for a '41 poncho??

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Winged Avenger II, Sep 14, 2010.

  1. What do you guys think about suicide doors for a '41 Pontiac Coupe? I'm playing around with it. The doors are pretty heavy and about the size of a refrigerator. Am I nuts, or has this got potential?:confused:

    you asked.... :) .... I would never do that to a car that never came that way. This is just my opinion....I just think it looks out of place.

    suicide doors are a bunch of work for no gain.

    There's a reason they stopped using them. I hate getting in and out of them.

    Bad idea, although not as bad as Lambo door hinges...

    Why not if it's what you want.

    Dare to dream. Why not swap in a real motor so it's actually a hot rod and not a borderline rat rod.

    The car isn't the least bit HAMB friendly except for the original year it was built.
