Question suicide doors

im thinking about installing suicide doors on my camaro but im not sure if its a good idea, for one support may be a problem, i dont want the body too look twisted because the frame cant handle the weight of the door. what do you think?

If the body can stand having a door with it's hinges at the front, then it can stand having a door with it's hinges at the rear. Rear hinged doors making getting into and out of the front seat much easier, but make getting into the rear seat harder, and of course they are more dangerous than front hinged doors.

Hnnn.

Actually putting a suicide door on the drivers side makes getting in an out a little problem.

The steering wheel is in the way.

Dynoed a 37 Ford with suicide doors and the owner kept explaining he never knew it would make getting in an out such a pain.

Think before you leap,
