    picked up these doors off Craigslist cheap, gonna add a solid polished aluminum panel to the back and use them in the summer. Can anyone tell me what kind of hinges I need to attach them to the 6????

    Looks like you've got the pattern for the standard lower hard door hinge already. As a 1/2 door w/aluminum skin will weigh about what a full soft top door does, I'd think a set of those would work, esp w/a backer plate on the lower one. Top hinge looks like it's right on the w/s hinge, some 76+ w/s hinges have a built in hinge there, I think for factory equipped softops. I have a set of those when I swapped to a 76+ w/s frame for a while. Are the hinge pin locations adjustable on that door frame,or fixed?

    they're fixed, and I think the original full door hinge location is to far away to work
