Really not all that hard. All you need is the doors, post and side windows from a 2 door.

The 4 door chassis and measurements other than that are all the same.

Mopar Muscle featured a 62 I believe, last year sometime. A dark blue one. You need the rear section and striker area of the two door, as well as the doors and quarter windows. You will have to fab up a small sevtion to make up the area where the bottom of the rear door and rear quarter come together. At least they did on the car in the article.

Here's a photo album of my '62 2-door wagon conversion, sedan would be the same.

Thanks for the replies....... I know I've seen a website with really good pix of the conversion. My 64 Ply was an old race car and whats not rusty has been butchered on so I'm thinking about using it to convert a really nice 4dr I have. I also have a 64 Dodge 2dr post that has a nice body but no floors....the race car has decent floors. Basicly I could fix both cars and maybe save myself some grief along the way. What do you guys think?

John,
What did you fill the rear doorline with (the wide black area), or is that all weld?

The pics show the welds that were later filled with Bondo.
