Haha? Aftermarket...

 

[volaredon]

What are they smoking? Yikes
And the 73 door panels were definitely different, they were metal not plastic like thise

Depends on the trim line if they were metal or fiberglass. I've had 72s and 73s with both styles.

If yours is an Adventurer, they have fiberglass door panels held in place by screws under those chrome metal strips. After 50+ years, those panels can be quite brittle, so, take care in removing them. The lower price lines have the metal door panels. Those should be fairly easy to find in decent condition compared with trying to find the fiberglass ones. If you're not concerned about originality, you can always make some, either out of aluminum or wood paneling.

Probably not "fiberglass" but a different kind of plastic, like ABS.

Possibly, I never did an analysis on them. The broken ones I've seen seemed to have some sort of fiber mixed into the plastic. They just seemed much heavier than their later plastic version.

Typical of fiberglass, being heavier than molded plastic (most ABS plastic is injection molded, like the standard door panels 75 and up) or SMC plastic.
