adjusting the gap on doors 200

I replaced the 2 doors on the drivers side today on my 92 240.The car had been side swiped lightly,but the doors were rusty on the bottom so it was better to get 2 non rusty doors.The gap betwwen the doors from the center is too wide.The front door is ok,the gap from door to fender is maybe 1/8in. The gap from the rear door to the 1/4 panel is tighter,maybe 1/8 to 1/16.The gap between the 2 doors is maybe 1/2 in. just too wide. The doors open and close properly,no binding and close nice and tight.Does the rear door hinge move from the body.The rear door had a harder hit.Also my front door needs to come out from the top just a bit to be flush with the fender.Found a guy with 5 very good condition wagons selling parts in Meriden Ct.He had a very nice gold color wagon complete.I opted for doors that were almost the same color as my car but did not have power windows,so I needed to transfer everything over,slight PIA but otherwise ok.So any advice?Thanks
