Looking for fiberglass doors for my Fox Stang. Hairy Glass is the only one I found. Their shipping looks like a hassle.

Harwood, VFN, and Glasstek all do.

Thanks for the response.

I think I will go with Harwood.

Can I use stock hinges or should I order the Harwood ones?

Not sure about using the stockers. Those Harwood hinges look pretty trick and a lot easier than most of the door mounts made.

One warning on the Harwood doors, the window frame on the drivers side(I think) won't fit up tight to the body. A couple local guys bought them and have had problems. They even tried different doors and they all did the same. Ended up having to cut the post and lay it back some and reglass it up. Just a FYI.

I have HO fibertrends doors. Fit great. Have factory roll up windows and the fit great and minimal body work to make look like steel doors. You must fabricate a hinge for the doors though.

I have Glasstek doors. They needed some "customizing" to make them fit and I used a hinge kit from Gilsbach.

Save yourself a TON of aggravation. Pick them up at the truck terminal.

OPEN THEM IN FRONT OF THE DOCK GUY. EVEN if the box is mint. Trucker SUCK for damaged freight claims. You'll end up eating the claim, unless you note it on the ticket. "Concealed Damage Claims" net you 1/3 the claim amount.

Mine were like that.. I was instructed by Hardwood to put a load on the frame where it needs to be bent.. And then set the door in the hot sunshine for a couple of hours.. Let the door cool before you release the load..

From my experience, don't try to go for the correct set on the first try.. You may overbend the door..

You'll have to let it over bend somewhat.. To compensate for the return when the load is released.. Keep overbend a little at a time, until it's right..
