86HatchShelby Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 soo someone kicked the doors in on my car:mad: '86 EA81 Hatch I was wondering if doors from a gen1 wagon would fit on my hatch because finding a hatch in the junk yards here is like finding hay in a needle stack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast I Drive Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 wagon doors are a few inches too short. Brat doors or maybe coupe doors would work, but the 4 door doors wont do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast I Drive Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Sounds like with some major components, and a little work, and a lift, it would be a good off road project, wouldnt have to worry about trail damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
