I can't give you a definite answer, but do know that there will be a significant difference in the hinges utilized. Your '62 would have had a "door-within-a-door" rather than the solid door with separate screen door that was utilized on the '67 -- the hinges utilized were quite different and there were likely some differences in the latching mechanisms as well.

Good luck with your research and search!

The door itself will probably fit, but it will almost be more trouble than it is worth changing hinges, and latches, and maybe even the doorframe.

A 1967 door "will not" correct fot a 62.

The shape is different, the dimensions are different and the hinges are different.
