    Does anyone out there know if the front doors out of a 1968-69 fit in a 1967 A100?

    Welcome to the site westcoastvanner. I think they will work. I have a '66 that I believe have 68-70 doors. That the kind of hardware they have anyway.

    Yep...they'll swap in, but the later doors have a fiberglass panel, different door handles and window cranks....if that matters to you.

    The updated door panels and handles are the reason I am interested in changing the doors. I like the look of the 1968-69 door panels and handles. I have also found a power window opener kit that uses the original window crank handle to activate the power window motor. It leaves a very clean and original factory look to the doors, while updating the window operation to power windows.

    Here is the web site that sells power window units for earlies using the original window crank.
