Toledo front doors needed

Recommended Posts

Hello, I have posted once before on the forum and now I have a request for parts. Does anyone know where I can get front doors for a triumph toledo?  Both the front doors are rusting badly at the bottoms and as part of our overhaul of the car we want to replace them.

I am going to post on the Practical Classics forum too.

Thanks,

Helen :)

if its a 4 door, at least 2 pairs of complete front doors here if you REALLY want them.

repair panels for the bottom sections (swage line downwards) are available, easier to get these welded on in many respects.  

not trying to be negative or anything but back doors are hard enough to line up.  look how the front door hinges fit compared with back doors in terms of access...  quite adjustable when 'loose', get them sort of lined up, then when you open the door to tighten the bolts - DOH!!!

then after about half a day on one door and lots of swearing, when you've got it just about good enough, you might be able to start trying to adjust the lock so the door actually opens n closes properly  :P

trying to realign replacement front doors if they dont fit right is an absolute w@nker of a job usually requiring an extra pair of hands and a jack to help support the weight of the door, a very smooth level floor so your trolley jack can move easily on it, and the patience of a saint.

i really would consider getting repair panels...  ;)
