Door panel
Hi guys, just a quick question... Does a 68 door panel fit on a 73 car door?? I am not sure if the door has a different measure or if itbs just the design of the panel tHat changed....
Thanks  Steve |

That same odd question crossed my mind for my street car as I wanted something that had a little more detail than a RS Panel. I really like the 68 Panel stripped down.
Consider this a bump as I don't know for sure myself, though I'd bet its just a matter of accessories since a 93 door will bolt on LOL

The door measurements are the same for 68 and 73. I assume you are talking about the interior door panel, correct? The 68 should fit dimensionally but realize the 73 panel was installed with hidden clips whereas, I believe, the 68 is installed with screws, is that right? If so, it still shouldn't be a problem it's just drilling of holes for the screws and hoping they don't line up with the larger holes in the door frame for the clips, found on the 73.

I think they really fit size wise as I've seen them on SC's and SC's are same size as 73 so......, but NOT with early dashes or locks or ........ I could be wrong, not the first time.

The '68 door panel is a one year only panel and can be quite valuable in decent condition. If the door pockets are trashed or missing and they have speaker holes; the value is greatly diminished.
