Hi - I have a 67 Fastback with a non fold down setup. I'm trying to put it together with no reference as to the finer details. There seems to be a gap between the (door) and the trim above it (see pic). Is that right or do I have the wrong part(s) or ???
Thanks
Jack

First welcome to the site. Hope you find the information and assistance here helpful in your restoration focused projects
Looks like its just an adjustment of the door and the surrounding panels. Each is adjustable
There are a number of threads that show related details of the non- fold down assembly from the interior and trunk side of the area you may want to search out and review.
Again welcome to the site.

Thanks for the reply! Maybe you can see from the pic that all the surrounding panels are lined up including the piece that is directly below the window. Even the door is lined up with the sides. I cant figure out where an adjustment could be made. Ive looked for pics but I didn't see a direct on pic of the back area. Any suggestions would be great.

Looks like the drivers side corner and the rear full trim panel don't line up along the full seam but what I was referring to was at times you need to adjust those panels to the trap door when you can't adjust the trap door to them.
But lets focus on the trap door since its the simplest of the two options.
I would try and manipulate the two upper brackets that attach the trap door to the top of the frame where each side is held with two small screws
This is a 68 version but it was handy - already in the system and I think they are the same as 67

If it will not move rearward check for obstructions especially if the car had a fold down installed at some point

These might help.
