Need Help on doors

I am hoping there is some who lives clos to me ( Kingston, Tn. ) who could help me aline my doors correctly.On the lower right hand corner they both need to come up about a 1/4 inch an in about 1/2 to 3/4. Also wondering about putting different hinges on it, (1940 Ford P.U.) Pictures in my gallery. So if any one lives close or can explane it over the phone send me a message please.

They are just two straps of metal coming out, on my 35 Terraplane I had to heat and bend the hinges a little to lift the door up. If the door sticks out that much on the back corner, the door could be twisted, you can untwist them but it takes a lot of work, and I'm not sure that's the problem.

The hinges might just be shot, or you could get hidden hinges for it, but if the door is in fact twisted they won't fix your problem. Can you move your door up and down if you grab it in the back bottom corner?
