I was so excited to get back home Saturday to get my door so I could begin the wood rebuild on the cab, only to find that the door I purchased on Ebay, was the wrong door. Bummer.
It was a crummy picture.
If I would have noticed the 4 hinges instead of three, I would have realized it was not the right door.
Can anyone help me identify this door.
It has the two ribs that run horizontally across the door like I have seen on 1929 and 1930 chevy trucks however, it is 29"s wide x 48"S TALL. Looks more like the back panel door of a panel truck or possibly a 1927 or 28 truck door.
I would like to be able to resale it.
Please see picture in my photobucket.
Thanks,
Dave

Don't feel bad, Dave. Most if not all of us here have gotten bit by inaccurately described/represented items sold online or even at swap meets.

Sorry I can't help with identifying the part in question.

Dave,

I believe you have a 1929/30 1/2 ton door. I've seen examples of the 1/2 ton with both 3 and 4 hinges (4 being rare). If the door fits your opening I'd hang on to it until I found the correct door...converting it from 4 to 3 hinges is a lot easier than making the entire door.

It's about 5"s taller than my opening. And about an inch wider.
However, it has the regulator knobs and latches.
Might hold on to it just for the hardware.
