BB All American rear door needed

I am in need of another rear door to use as parts to extend mine to haul larger motorcycles. I plan on cutting mine and your old one both in half, or just a little longer than half, and welding them back together to make a 6" wider door with only one seam. Does anyone have their rear door they took off and need to get rid of? Of course it has to match mine exactly which makes the one I am needing a Bluebird All American from the 70's or 80's, maybe even the early 90's? It could even have some damage on one side or the other and of course I can't use the windows because it will need to be longer when I am done so I would like them cut out to save weight and be safer in transit. I assume I can UPS it to my place but haven't checked. Does anyone think that will be a problem? dimensions are 34 13/16 W X 55" H thanks, Sportyrick

sr
seems to me that somone on here made a "second" door by cutting one side an articulating it with a hinge - I thnk it was meant to get wider things(toy?) in and out.

I 'llhave a look to see ifI can find it again.

Perhaps you have already decided on your methodology- if so please forgive the unsolicited advice

Re: BB All American rear door needed

Is this door different than an 88 BB conventional?
