Based on your comments I guess I need to continue my search for a passenger
side door for my 72 GT.  My wife backed the SUV into the door on my GT and
I was going to replace it rather than trying to bang it out and add bondo.
The glass and internals on my door weren't damaged so I was hoping I could
just switch them out to the 72 MGB door I found.  Thanks for the advice.
