Eric is right on. The doors from 39 to 47 are about 4.5" to long , from memory. The width is perfect. You would have to cut them off and box the bottom. Look at the rear opening on the carryall where the body hinges would go. You will notice indented areas. This is where the hinges go, and behind the sheet metal is the steel backing plates already in place for panel door hinges. I found these plates when I stripped the skin off my Carryall. Its not a hard job, but it takes some doing to make them fit. Also plan on fabing new lock plates to hold the doors shut. You can see pictures of this process on my Carryall album on my Image Event site.

Eric, wern't those 1947 doors we got for mine off that truck in Mn ?
