Door Alingment
I know door fitting is a very intricate and tedious job and was wondering is there adjusment to their position inside of the doors?

The only adjustments are in the hinge mountings

Re: Door Alingment
Shims were sometimes used at the factory to help make the doors align. In some cars that have been restored, the shims were removed without noting their location on the body. For the doors to align properly, when the car is reassembled, the shims need to be replaced in their original location.
