Door and glass interchange

[adiffrentcity]

Alright guys my head is spinning after reading a bunch of threads on this topic. I would like to put 73 and up doors on dad's 70 dart for the purpose of ditching the vent windows. I've found a set on CL from a 73 duster. I know the weatherstripping around the glass opening on the body side will need to be changed, but is the glass shaped correctly to fit the opening and meet the roof, front pillar and rear windows? I'm thinking the answer is no. Thanks for the input and spare me the roasting for not wanting vent windows lol.

Well dang. More research (better search terms) led me to my answer:banghead: mods delete if it pleases you

You can't use Duster doors in a Dart. The curvature of the glass on Duster won't match the Darts opening.

Can the glass be changed to the correct glass for the car, then use either door?

The regulator setup is completely different. The outer skin is all that can be used.

I took the regulator & glass out of my dart door, and put it in my duster door. I haven't put it on the car as of yet though.

I used a duster door and regulator for my dart. ('74 swinger) I switched out the glass to the new regulator and it works fine.

There are three different generations of Duster glass/regulator setups.
70-72, then 73 only, then 74-76. The later regulators are very similar to the Dart. Early ones, not even close

just to give an idea of 73 v 74-- 70-72 is similar to 73.
