   Can confirm. One of my first cars was a mid-80's Chrysler New Yorker. Good memories.

     Ok let's upholster the door.

     Wait, fuck it, carpet the door.

     My parents had a similar Oldsmobile. Heaven help you if your hands or fingers came between a closing door and the door jamb.

     @ILoveAmericaNews Mom had a 1978 Monte Carlo for a while. Those doors seemed to be three blocks long and yeah, quite heavy. GrandPa was a shade-tree mechanic, and spent more time trying to keep the doors aligned and supported on the hinges than he did messing with the dang QuadraJet carb.

     @ILoveAmericaNews Today's cars are much heavier than the 1970s boats. But those 2 door coupes are a thing of the past because of all the bolstering for side impact, roll-over protection, airbag supports, etc.
