That is what I was thinking, didn't know if I needed to remove the pins and clean them or something. It's so tight that the door jam flexes a little bit next to the hinges

It is really hard to open the entire way not just when I start to open it, definitely something to do with the hinges.

Really tight hard to open passenger door

The door on the passenger side of the car seems really really tight and hard to close and open, do I just spray some penetrating oil in the pin area or is there something I can loosen as well? :x

Hello from Omaha

The plan as of now if to pick up my 66 tomorrow, as long as the owner doesn't back out... I have owned over 6 VWs but never older than my 80s GTI rabbit. I have "restored" everything but the exterior of my other aircooled vehicle a 62 corvair greenbriar van. The idea is to restore this one...
