My Mustang has a door Finally!!!

So last weekend Dad, Sean, and T attempted to install the driver's side door on the mustang again. this is are 5th time the door has been put on the door and the 17th time of adjusting and checking. It has been about 6 months since our last attempt at the door. We took apart one of our jacks to specially design it for the door, used a $40 special ordered wrench, use another jack, a block of wood, two bricks, socket wrench, a small screwdriver, 10 Popsicle sticks, a bunch of blue masking tape, three humans, 1-2 hours of just sitting there thinking how do we start, close to 3-4 hours of prep, and 1-2 hours of checking/rechecking/adjusting/freaking out/pleading with the heavens to find that the door is finally installed and lines up pretty much perfectly on the first try of sunday. :)

so after about 5-7 hours here it is:

with the door open


note: yes the door is a bit angled like a lambo scissor door which which is why the door fit a alot better this time

with the door closed



from the rear



to show the lines



and finally for those who think i'm pulling your leg here's the passenger side too
