Thought I'd give an update to our door dilemma. Thought about press bending the hinges to position the door towards the other door and away from the opening. Nah, they are way to thick. Heat them to bend? How to get the same angle on both hinges? Nah. Decided to tack weld a shim to it to kick the door over. After 2 tries with different thicknesses we said good enough. Had to die grind the openings in the body to get the thicker hinges in but the rubber boot covers it up well. Not bad gaps for a 70 year old body. My 71 year old body has gaps and wrinkles I can't do much with either.
Added a pic of the progress.
