Default Does the door skin of 1931 rster work for 1932 rpu?

I have not been able to compare measurements but sure look like it would?

One of the things I like about the '30-'31 open vehicle is that the front of the doors blend smoothly into the body, the '32 RDPU does not do that. I am sure the belt line is wrong but have never checked.

This is the back part of the door and you can see how different it is and will check on the front.

Front of 32 rpu and will check how well the 30 31 doors fit the 32 roadster cowl. I don’t remember as I had 32 doors matched to the rpu cowl

As said above, not even close. Only similarity is they both have two hinges and a handle.
