That's always been my biggest fear, seems I have nothing old with an operating e-brake & no one wants to just hang out in the thing while I'm tweaking on the distributor, plus on the Barracuda I'm always checking the 3000 rpm total advance, can't imagine it jumping in Reverse then.,.

I figured messed up latch area or hinge area.


Yep, it was a little scary. I was able to jump in it pretty quickly but I got my foot on the brake at the exact moment the door hit the fence. I'll never do that again without chocking the wheels. On a happier note. The door needed a bunch of bodywork and there was no damage to the hinge area. Just need a good door and a lower hinge.
