Re: 68 Headlamp door size
I have a November 67 build car and I just measured the overall width and length of my headlight doors and doors from a 69. The maximum front to back dimension is 9.780 (68) and 9.850 (69), the other direction is 14.470 (68) and 14.540 (69). As you can see there is not much difference as others have stated. These doors are die cast aluminum and were die trimmed for the opening. Looks like the trim die must have been changed at some point. The main difference that I can see on an early 68 door is the sides are flat, later are "bulged" a little more.
