Can I add that the door you describe is one of the coolest parts of the car?
Because it has a little sticker that simply states the car is exempt from safety regulations. Wouldn't it be the fun to show it to a highway patrol officer in the event they hassle you over safety equipment?
I'm not running the pedal box or the door but I hope to install them at some point just to have the sticker. There is some lore circulating that suggests the genesis of the exemption; Mrs. DeTomaso allegedly had some connections with DOT which got the car through. I have never done any serious research on the topic... It may be a rumor.

That would be rumor. I can’t recall but other manufacturers received similar limited exemptions in the late 60s early 70s
