Those lambo hinges are stronger than I thought to support that heavy door. Wonder how much structural changes to the pillar was needed to mount the hinge and counterpoise mechanisms -- and what it would take if someone wanted to revert to regular doors.

With the door treatment it is interesting the rest of the car seems to have remained mostly stock -- or at least doesn't appear to have suffered.
