West, methinks, for whatever reason, Russ is pulling your leg. That
said, I've not had a Duetto in the shop for eons, but have had a bunch
of '69 Round-Tails in and they're definitely adjustable. You'll have to
remove the inside door panels but the bolts are then easily accessible
with a shortish extension on a socket (13MM) wrench. This is of course
for fore / aft. For in / out, loosen the four bolts on the hinge. Worst
scenario for adjusting fore / aft and you can't adjust the door far
enough back, put 'appropriate sized' washers on the four bolts behind
the hinge.
The doors themselves are very light, but the glass isn't. I sit on a low
stool and with a doubled up towel rest the door on my leg when loosening
the bolts and adjusting. It's definitely a trial and error project. And
especially if the doors have been damaged, it is frequently a compromise
situation, shut-line wise.
