Another thought is that you have some adjustment at the bottom of the rear
fender, as it bolts to the B-post. Don't be afraid to "fiddle" with the
fender fit. When I installed my '76 TR6 panels after rebuild, I made sure
that all gaps, fit ... was uniform. To do this, I used washers as spacers
to move the panels to the proper places. Use the door as your first point
of reference, as they really don't have much available movement. I also
suggest using a bonnet as a frame of reference for the front fenders, as
alignment here can be tough too.
Good luck!!!

Subject: TR6 Door Adjustment
My TR6's doors do not close flush with the body. The front of the door near
the hinges looks OK. The rear sticks out about 1/4". I have tried moving the
striker inward but this seems to make matters worse. It looks like this is
the only adjustment to make. Can anybody help or point me to a reference?
Thanks,
