I have a 1969 Dodge Coronet and a 1970 Dodge Charger an I am having trouble getting the doors to shut tight. The doors are both on the drivers side. Can anyone help me on how to adjust or fix the doors. Thanks

if the doors drop when they are opened the hinges need to be rebuilt.

The doors seem to be tight on the hinges and they don't look like they drop when you open them.

sounds like the stricker and latch are out of adjustment.

You can't always tell that the door is sagging by looking at it.. open the door all the way, grab the end of it, and lift up... it shouldn't be loose...
