Just received some sheet metal for a 56 Bug I'm working on and was surprised to see that a hole is missing. Why aren't the resellers badgering the manufacturer about this issue? Well here's what I did to it. Still a little more finishing work to get rid of the last few aesthetic issues and it'll get welded into place. This is where the door hinge bolts in.

If I remember correctly later cars had only three screws on the door hinges. Leaving you to cut the hole, if needed, makes the part a "fits all"
And the factory saved four screws on every car. |
