Any local body guy that can hang doors?

Most never fit right from the factory. I think you would have better luck finding some one to date a fat girl in a wedding dress.Something like this might help

Make sure the pins and hinges are tight and install the latch/striker after you have everything in place and closing smoothly

Thanks Slim, I ended up getting my body guy to hang them. I was looking for a local guy because he's an hour away and always hard to get.

Thanks 77. Barry the guy that did my body and paint came by last night for the doors and is coming back for the hood and fenders. He did an amazing job painting my car, I won't say how long it took but well worth the wait. If I need someone in the future at least I know there's a couple guys still left that can do this kind of work. Its been a nightmare trying to find local guys to do work, I had a guy in Harriston do all the fab work, Rob Purcell, and Barry Bolton, did the body and paint and he's an hour or more away!
