Default '69 Rust Free 4-Dr Sedan Driver Door Needed

I'm on the hunt for a clean, straight & rust-free driver door from a 4-door sedan or wagon (Tempest, Custom S, or LeMans).

Default '68 Door would work too?

I imagine a '68 door are the same as the '69's?

You might try Joe Vega, aka "azchevs". He has some four door doors in his yard. Sierra Vista, AZ.

I never even thought about the 4 doors possibly being the same. Does the 69 4 door still have the vent windows? I would assume that would be the only difference.

Yep, coupes and sedans (doors with frame posts around the windows) still had the vent windows through '72, wagons did too.

Default 1968-1972 Pontiac intermediate 4 door hardtops

Along with the 4 door hardtops, through 1972 (so there is no retrofit factory part availability)

Yes, I forgot to mention them. I don't own any 4-dr hardtop A-bodies, just a '71 Bonneville 4-dr hardtop and they don't have the vent window like the A-bodies do.

Hollander number is 2085. '68 and '69. Interchange section shows Pontiac only, with an "early" and "late" stamping, with different part numbers. MIght? be something to do with the movement of the lock rod farther away from the rear edge of the door, from '68 to '69. Although thought that was a H.T. thing, to cut down on "coat hangering" break ins.
