Let me be the first

[ProTourGSX]

INTMD8, I have seen these hinges up close on a mid-'70s Caprice, done by a local shop, for a local customer (poor choice of car for this modification, in MY opinion), but to look at the car, you'd never suspect the doors to open any other way than the normal factory function. The owner told me to open the door, as I did by his instruction. Then he asked if I noticed anything different or unusual about the doors, which I did NOT. Then he instructed me to LIFT the back part of the door, and it swung up just smooth & gentle, with very little effort from me.

I appreciate & understand everyone's opinions & concerns here, as I explained this is only an ATTEMPT to try something different on my car, that MAY or MAY NOT work, but I won't know for sure, until I TRY!

I also agree with those who are AGAINST the idea, and I understand that I may NOT like how the doors work, after I install them. If not, I'll put the factory hinges back on, and at least say that I TRIED.

I may yet order a pair of Fiberglass doors to use for testing, instead of the heavy steel doors, for now!

Regardless of how this project turns out, Lambo hinges or not, at least the car will turn heads, as well as becoming an even BETTER version of one of the FASTEST Musclecars Ever Built, after all factory parts have been upgraded & improved with stronger materials & designs of modern aftermarket performance parts!



I'd just like to THANK everyone here for your input/experience/knowledge, as I just try to apply what I can, where & how I can, to enjoy my own vehicles, and share with others who have the same in common.

My payment for the hinges has been processed, and I'm at a standstill until the parts are shipped/received, before I can begin installation.
I will take pics of progress, and keep you informed, good or bad, either way!
