Doorskin 911 flat?

I'm restoring an 911 and running into a problem with the doors.

Could someone advice if the doors are total flat horizontal or has a curve on it?

Currently they are curved, as seen on the pictures but I was presumed they supposed to be flat.

The doors are curved. The car is an arch headlight to taillight.

It's a gentle arch and yes the longboard will conform.

The fact that you are asking and were considering making them flat tells me that you should back away from the car and let a pro handle it. I know that’s considered the wrong thing to say on the big DIY board but it’s solid advice in a lot of cases here.

Thanks guys,

The gently curve will stay, now only remowe the poor welds on the bottom of the doors from the previous owner
