Are you talking about the metal pieces that cover the wood in the body part of the jam, like top & sides?....Joe

There is a very talented guy not far from you I think, who makes reproduction body parts in his shop. His work is truly remarkable. If you could trailer the vehicle to him or somehow take the piece to him, he could probably help you out. Here is a link for you Wheelwright Restorations .

The rear door will fit the opening, but the contour around the window area is a little different and would need some minor work between the 39 and the 40
The kit for the 40 is for the the door frame not the door (the 40 door was all steel)
I do know someone making woody parts in the philly area.
If your old wood can be used for templates he should be able to help.
Contact me at yfabshop@gmail.com and I can get you his info.
