    Well, I guess I got lucky. I called a buddy that has parted out dozens of older Fords, and he just happened to have both left side doors from a 83 Granada wagon he parted out about 15 years ago. We dragged the LF door out, and removed the bracket and plastic bushings that fit into the windows mounting holes. I should know by Monday if it will all work out. Thanks for the info!
