Kevin, I have a suggestion for your doors opening too far and hitting the front fenders. My 1930 Ford Model A Roadster (Hot Rod) had straps fastened to the lower front of the doors with the other end fastened to the door frame. The length of the straps would determine how far the door would swing open. They were made out of the same material as the seat coverings; although, leather straps would work nicely too. They are a simple and easy way to control the swing. You may want to consider using them until a decision is made about the shape of the front fenders. Maybe these straps are offered by Model A parts suppliers. By the way, I think the shape of the fenders is most attractive and would not change them. Loving this project.
