Default Re: Frustration aligning doors in a Fordor Body

Alignment on any closed model A car can be a challenge depending on the damage history, if any, and condition of structural members. I would try to split the difference between gaps and body lines to reduce visual differences as much as possible. Once a car is all painted up, it makes it difficult to tweak members, whether steel or wood, in order to get as close as possible to a pleasing outcome. Door hinges can be bent just as easy as body members but neither are easy to correct.
