Easy Fix! How to fix sagging doors on your classic car!

Today we are going to raise up and align the old doors on my 1962 Pontiac Catalina Safari.

Do you have to slam the doors in your classic hot rod to get them to shut? Are they hard to open? Over time the heavy doors in old cars sag under the weight. You dont have to live with it. If you own a jack and a piece of wood you can fix them. Its free and will only take about a half hour of your time. You can do it yourself in your home garage.

In this video I cover both how to raise the doors back up, and how to adjust the striker if you need to. This will help you get your doors into alignment, and make sure they open and close smoothly.

Important Tech Tip: Make sure you mark your striker before you adjust!! If you get lost, you will always be able to get back to your zero point if its marked.
