Well it's good to hear that someone has thought about how to make a project legal.

I don't know how many times I have tried to tell people that they need to start by talking with DOT officers. Doing this in the beginning can save a lot of time & money. Been there done that.

Heck they can be your friend or they can be your enemy, I want them on my side.

Have you noticed that any of the newer 73-92 suburbans & crew cabs offer very similar rear door hinges?
