Wow! I'm impressed!
I thought I would be kicked off the site. Lol
When I first started this project and before i ran across Stovebolt, I went to the local Model A club in Colorado Springs to get some direction and they were very rude to me.
Very snobby.
I was hoping I wouldn't be blackballed here after telling my story. Actually, think it was a God thing that I ran across these doors and are able to include them in the family history.
I just uploaded the pictures on photobucket if you want to take a look.
Here's an interesting observation:
I always wondered WHY the actual doors that are supposed to be on the vehicle don't match up with the front end on a 1929 Chevy truck.
If you look at pictures, the actual door has two decorative ribs or bumps that run horizontal just below the window opening about 6"s apart, but they don't match up with the single rib on the front end.
With this Essex door, there is a single decorative rib that matches up with the front end perfect.
When I go back for the other door in a couple of weeks, there are rear fenders there as well. Some 1929 Chevy trucks had a rear fender and some didn't. It appears that there are bolt areas to connect on the running boards, but I believe it never had any. From the pictures i've seen with bumbers, I think they look better.
Thanks for everyone support,
