    1951 Concord Door Alignment

    I just bought a 1951 Concord Business Coupe. I noticed that both doors aren't lined up with the body. It looks like they have door sag. Is this a simple adjustment fix? I don't see any rust at all. Nothing looks broken. Well, the drivers side window cracked when someone slammed the misaligned door before I found it. Please help. Also, where can I get an advertisement or promotional pictures of this car? I want it to look as close to the original as possible.

    Easiest way to find original sales brochures is on ebay! They are listed quite regularly. Are the hinge pins worn on your car?

    bradsarcade....I don't know if this will apply to your situation; however, I have a later model vehicle that experienced the same problem. It turns out that the door hinge pin bushings were worn causing the door to sag. I would check to see if there is up and down looseness or play in the doors when they are open or if you lift the door when you close it it doesn't bump or collide with the latch on the post.
