Door swap? Please help...

I have a 1972 Ambassador 29' with a door that the lock has been mangled. On this forum a gentleman has a 1969 overlander door for sale. ANYONE know if these doors are alike enough to make the swap with minimal modifications? Thanks in advance to those that help...

Welcome to the forums.

I'm not sure if the doors are interchangeable or not. 1969 was a transition year for Airstream with a new body style. Many things that year are not exactly the same as the 70s.

If you just need a door lock, Out of Doors Mart sells them on their website, but they are pricey. Inland RV sells a conversion kit that would let you replace the door lock with a newer style. Both options would be easier then replacing the door.
