The rectangular cutouts in the B pillar for the "hinges" were dropped in mid 
71, so your friend will have to make new holes. The factory cutouts had 
reinforcments welded in there, so his will be weaker than the originals.

Proper placement and size of the holes is critical and is bound to be tricky. It 
would be best to have a factory car to copy.
