Trying to restore a 63 Pontiac Parisienne and have run into problems removing the door panels. Was able to remove dash pad after seeing info here and was wondering if anyone could tell me how to remove door panel. Thanks

Remove phillips head screws along the bottom, remove door handles, window cranks, and door lock knob. the panel is held in with pins around the outer edges, ply out with a blunt tool and then lift the panel up 1.5" as the top wraps around the top of the door.

Thanks! It's the first project in about 18 yrs! My first one was a 76 maverick with my dad.

Hi. Welcome from Canada's east coast. Post some pictures of your Pontiac in the "Welcome Aboard" thread (even of your old Maverick).
