Does a 57 door = 60 Door?
I'm looking for a 1960 drivers door and a friend came across someone selling a 1956/57 door. I know 60's are different from 61's which are different from 62's, but would a 57 work for a 60?
thank you,
Jay

The location of the inside door release moved in 1958.
It will bolt in and work, but the door panel opening for the inside release handle will be different.

Arm rest mounting is way different, you could make it work but it just isn't worth the effort. Get the correct door and keep it simple.
