I have a 1977 Pinto hatchback and I'm looking for a passenger door.
...I have a 1980 door on it now and theres just enough difference in bodies that it doesn't quite fit right...
Machine1964,
You may want to check to see if the 80 door your car now has on it was not from a wagon. There IS a difference between the wagons and the slantbacks.
...I was told this is an Arizona car.
HELLFIREJIM,
To verify an Arizona car, to be a TRUE Arizona car, it should have a DSO code of '75'. All Ford vehicles, from at least the 60s through the early 80s, that were shipped to the Phoenix distribution point, were assigned a DSO of '75'. Now this is excluding any special optioned vehicles that were issued a code longer than two digits.
This is not to say that other DSOs were not good, just that it is not a true "original Arizona" car. I grew up in Tucson, AZ, and I love old Fords, so I've always made sure to know what I had as a baseline.
Oh, and let me tell you what a shock it was to go in the Navy and see the rusty cars in Illinois! I had never seen a 'rusted out' car in person until then.
Good luck all!
