Hello Yall,
Just starting a 75 Blazer restification project and I have an issue I need help with. The doors that are on it are from a late 70’s early 80’s truck and were “cut-to-fit” (rather poorly). I'm looking for the correct angles/measurements for the cuts at the door tops so I can get it to seal up to the top. Thx in advance for any help.

All doors were actually cut to fit. even the ones that came on the 73-75's. the post requires a 3 angle cut, but I couldn't describe it. I have asked a few people for a template for cutting but never found anything specific. If you have the top on there it should be pretty straight forward.

Appreciate the replies. I visited the coloradok5 site, pretty good intel he didn't quite have what I was looking for. I do have the top on and pretty much ready to try put the correct doors on pretty much freehand the cuts. I also need to fabricate a bracket to mount the lower cap.
Another issue I have is the mount between the roll bar and inner box sides. It appears a 1 inch spacer should be inserted between the two. Right side is little over an inch and the left side is a little under. Anyone know what the correct spacing is?

I have a 75 blazer sitting in my shop at work I just picked up. I can take some measurements next week if you don't find your answers by then.

That would be great, THX.
