door and floor panel question.

Hey everybody, I thought I had two original doors, I do not. passenger door is 1G2FS21S1HN241410 which I'm pretty sure means it's from a firebird? The bottom body lines seem to be okay, but the top near the front of the door is too far in towards the body. (hard to describe and I don't have a picture handy.) Are they valid replacement doors? Or do I need to look for a new passenger door now?

Second question!
I have minor holes in the floor pan on passenger side from leaking T Tops. Do I have to weld in a whole new piece of sheet metal, or can I patch it with a material of sorts. I can stand on it right now and it doesn't move, I only ask cause i have limited access to a welder. Thanks in advance fellas.

Please excuse the extra debris, I hadn't vacuumed out the mess yet.

From underneath, looks pretty clean.

Re: door and floor panel question.

You should be able to patch that or even just POR it.
Its possible the fender is out too far.There are bolts near the hood hinge for the fender.loosen & push the fender inward, see if that solves the issue.
