New Doors

Postby RUDDY » 28 Jul 2009 08:19

I notice TD Fitchett advertise new doors for the FHC, anyone had one ? Are they full doors or just a shell minus the skin ?

Gonna give them a ring.

cheers, Paul

Works out about £280'ish each delivered, gonna have a pair I think but I'll have to wait until next pension day for the other side cos I am now skint [:(].

Now I know some will say that theres full cars on Ebay cheaper than a pair of new doors, and some will say once they are painted they are just the same as good second hand but my thought is that this is the last car I am restoring, its gonna be right .

cheers, Paul

Paul, our TR7 Sprint has the new doors and they are well worth the money, they fit really well, a lot of the older ones are slightly twited and are difficult to fit to a used shell.
