Your not the first person to have that happen on a 1940 Packard. A friend of mine has a 1940 180 club sedan and on one of his rear doors the hinges are "sprung" from the door flying open at speed at one time in the cars past. This happened before he bought it in the late 1960's. The door still opens & closes, but you can feel the tension in the hinges as you do it.
