The driver side front cargo door is trashed. Can I use a passenger side rear cargo door? Or do I have to find another from the driver's side?

The doors from the left and the right are the same.
You can find any left (rear on right, front on left) panel door of the same vintage to replace it.

Good advice, a 1957 panel would take '55-'59 panel doors.

Make sure you get high hinge doors as well.

High hinge, '55-'59 front left side, or rear right side. Got it. The search is on... and if anyone has one, I have some $$$...

that should be '55-'58, not through '59. the door should be totally smooth on the outside, NOT have an indent for the handle.
