After a (too) long period od just wasting time by doing monkey business, I
have decided to go on with my restoration project on my 1967 series V
Alipne. In principle the car is standing again on its axles, engine & gear
is in, windscreen is mounted again, doors, hood etc. are mounted.
Inspired by the letter of Don, who is asking for hints regarding the
removing of the doors, I would like to post also a question to the group:
Can anyone give mi hints and tipshow is the right way to do the door
adjustement after re-mounting the doors? Is there any special tool
necessary or are there any specials spares needed?
It seems not a too big problem for me to do the adjustment of the doors
referring to the sides of the body, it looks to me that this can be doone
by loosening the bolts - changing the position - re-tighting thge bolts, so
I believe.
But what makes ma a big head-ache is, how to adjust the door lets say in
the way, that the top-border is in line with the rest of the body and that
the gaps around are equal. Any tips and hints for that kind of job?
Something special needed? I think, that there some special spacers will be
necessary. If so, can anyone give me a hint where to get? I would prefer an
European distributor, caused by the fact that I am living in Austria.
I would be thankful for any comment!
Thanks in advance for your efforts, and keep them on the road!
Best personal regards from sunny Austria
