Can someone give me tips on fitting doors to this car.When I locate them where they appear to be placed (hing holes opposite hinge holes) they are too big. When I raise them so they fit the hinge holes don't match. Can I make adjustments by Heating and bending the hinges?

Line up the belt line on the body. If holes don't line up,plug them with hardwood dowel/glue, and redrill. Hinges can be bent cold. You just bump them a little at a time to allign door.
