Default Correction.....

....Bob wants to use 1/4 inch key stock "held inplace with tape" to have the same spacing as the pass. side....so as to test the fit.....no welding....too damaging/permanent.

I would suggest we fit the door without hinges....using wooden shims as spacers all around..... no hinges at this time.....

Weld/rebuild the door wedge see how everything aligns with the same spacing as the pass. side..... then see how the hinges have to fit.....

Might want to measure the door opening on the pass side in various corss directions..... and compare to the driver's side...... like wise measure the door.... not being sure how or what was done during the reskinning...

There are so many variables.......
