Never heard that term either. Maybe someone else will know.

As for the fit problem, what you have to do is compare the right side to the left, taking exact measurements from various points on the car to see if both sides are the same. If they are , then measure the doors to see if they are the same width. By doing very careful measuring you should be able to see where the misalignment is occurring.

American cars of that era were not very exact dimensionally, there were a lot of areas that did not line up or fit well. Willys was one of the manufacturers who were known to be a little sloppy in their fit and finish. They were an economy car sort of, and consequently had some shortcomings. That being said, most of us would love to have one, I know I would. They make great gasser type vehicles, and are just plain cool looking. Very desirable cars.
