Very good news. Hopefully, your model year has accessible hinge bolts. My '67, sadly, does not. That makes keeping both panel gaps consistant a bit of a bodge.

There is nothing wrong with making one or more mounting holes more oval if necessary to allow for additional motion. Oh, you are not suffering from sill rust? That also tends to make doors "appear" to sag. On hardtops like ours the door gaps will appear trapezoidal (tight at top, open at bottom).
