    The factory rear doors on the '48-'53 Thames were made of aluminum ........ my '48 has the original aluminum doors ......... if you buddy's car is from that time frame and his doors are steel, they are replacements ......... We talked about replacing ours with steel reproductions but settled on fabricating stronger steel braces for the aluminum ones ..........
