    Posted: 05-September-2023 at 4:31PM
Good evening I have a 1 owner 72 Gran Torino which was my fathers who passed in 2021 it’s been garaged kept all its life but was driven a lot when dad got out of service, with that being said it still runs was well taken care of engine an trans but looking for some doors being that we lived in Midwest so rust is always around rather in garage or not, mainly in the corners was wandering if anyone could point me in right direction both doors operate as they should but do have door skin rust, going to do some restorations which honestly isn’t that bad I’ve seen way worse. Would love any info thanks for your time!!!

Welcome to the forum!  I upgraded you to new members so you don't require moderator approval for posts anymore.  I don't have doors, but I can tell you that '72-76 Torino doors all interchange, except for the 1974 Gran Torino Elite and the 1975-76 Ford Elite.  The glass is specific to the fastback cars through.

Just a thought on another route, my doors had rust issues on the lower part of the door skins, brought the doors to a local sheet metal shop and they made pieces for those areas which my body man welded in.  The shop did a very nice job on making the pieces and the fit was very good.

Yes, I forgot to state the obvious, only 2-doors interchange with other 2-doors! The 4-door cars obviously use much shorter doors. Thanks for catching that Dave...
