I know I won't find a door on here, but someone can still help me out enormously. I would pay $100 to anyone that could just trace out an upper and lower parts of any one door, with all the bolt holes. I know it sounds ridiculous,  but I would be very grateful for this help. Hell maybe I might even have a part someone needs I can help them with for doing this solid for me. Thank you for anyone that's up for helping me bring this girl back from the dead.

You might check with Rod Shaver, Mark. I think I saw where he had a door or doors for sale within the last couple of weeks. Good luck.

I'm not exactly sure who Rod is but I will definitely try to hunt him down. Does he have a call sign on here? Thank you for replying.

I got a text from him that he sold them. Sorry.

Wow, thank you for those diagrams. I don't know what I'm doing wrong on the search page here, but most of the time it gives me zero results, which is odd. I can't believe I lost the templates I made from my last build. It would be nice to at least have one door to confirm my work. Is there a diagram as well for the windshield armor plate? Where should I be looking to hunt it down? If anyone has at least one door, please let me know. Thanks again for all the intel guys. This site is such a wealth of intel. God bless who made this site, and all of you that contribute.

I have a cut but unfinished upper door available. It’s not drilled so it can be used on the driver or co-driver side. It would be a jump start if anyone is interested.

Does anyone have a diagram of the 1/2" windshield armor plate? also what the measurements are for the thick long piece that goes along the top of the windshield where the canvas tie down bracket mounts to? I have to make these very soon and i need a little help on the measurements.

 Thank you, Mark

Wow very nice, perfect. Thank you for all this intel. I dont know what im doing wrong on my search results when looking for this stuff, but you nailed it for me. its funny, i have been making every piece almost for this track and i have laid out large black sheets of paper, and traced every part in white ink like these drawings. Just incase i have to do another rebuild where i have to make everything again. Unfortunately there are a few plates i didn't have any patterns to go off of. So again thank you for taking the time to send me these links man, so helpful.
