    Love your video but I had to turn it off because it was giving me anxiety lol. I may just have to take my 76 to a body shop to make sure my door spacing is set properly

    I have a 71 Corvette and my gaps are about the thickness of a paint stick.

    I think you missed the Mark on this one, bud.
    #1: The first rule to gaping C3 doors is making 100% sure your body mounts are in good shape and do not need to be replaced or adjusted.
    #2: Start with your door shims, and get them as close as possible
    #3: Your gap should be the width of two paint sticks glued together as a reference before the final paint

      You are correct I am sure. I can only do what I can do. I will fix that stuff in the years to come.

    If I want to take the door off for paint I can take it off at the door bolts ?

      Yes. The hole for the brass bushing in my hinge was egged out, so it needed replacing.

      Sorry Robert, I do what I can to monitor volume levels. Sometimes I do a better job then others.
