That's a nice looking box. Certainly one of the rarest tudors on the site.
That DS Front Door to Fender Gap is horrible though. You can fix that by loosening the 4 bolts that attach the hinges to the jamb of the door, pushing the door inward slightly, and then tightening the bolts back down. Sometimes the factory adjustment is just not there though on all these parts, then its gets a little more involved to fix.Comment

It is rather upsetting for me, I know it sticks out like a sore thumb. I tried adjusting the door and fender when I first got the car, but it did not go well. The gap on the other end of the door grew to massive proportions and the fender will not move back far enough to aid in closing the gap. I think the car may have had the driver's fender replaced at one time, and it needs to come off to have the mounting holes elongated slightly. Who knows, maybe the frame will twist under torque and close the gap after the project is finished lol. Yes, that. We'll hope for that...Originally posted by LTDMan83 View PostComment

Wow, I have been neglecting this thread. I will grab the specs when I have the wheels off soon. I finally acquired a disc brake rear that I have to set the jazzy differential and ring & pinion up in before installation. I snapped an axle shaft and I haven't driven the poor thing all year... I shall surely document the Dutchman axles, Auburn Pro-Posi differential and Richmond 4.33:1 ring & pinion installation in the coming months. Must procure the disc brake master cylinder as well.Comment
