Door skins for 2 door/ traveller

Post by olderisbetter »

I have a pair of door skins they do not feel flimsy or wobble about but they are pattern ones, I do not know who made them but they have been knocking about for at least 10 years, just wondering what they are worth as i do not think i will use them, they do have very light surface rust in a few random places.

They say that they are always worth " what someone is prepared to pay for them " !!
Rough doors , on a certain well known Internet site , are going for £15 /25 whist complete doors are nearer £70/80 each. Asking price and purchase price aren't the same thing.
Repair panels ..from Morris Minor suppliers , lower door sections are £20 / 25 plus. A full skin ? circa £50 each is my stab in the dark !
They look to be in good nick from the photo . Ask for more and be prepared to lower the price , if you don't get any bites ?
Alternative views guys and gals ?

I think they'd sell for more than that on ebay. ESM still list them at £199.50 each but don't appear to have any in stock currently.
Good luck with the sale.

ESM...crickey i struck gold haha, But having had a close look at the skins today i have to say the shoulder of the door by the top hinge is quite loose compared to my car door it has a curve rather than the tight bend, Is this normal for copies, do they just expect you to shape them after fitting?
EDIT.. Above picture now has a red circle around where i am talking about.
