Jason,
I inspected the car again today, the hinges on the hood, doors and trunk are all the same tubular style. The doors are very light and thin, I was not able to see behind the carpet that was glued to the door. They are probably the same as KZJIM's, fiber glass and wood. The latching mechanism is at the opposite side of the hinges on the inside with no handles. It is a sliding mechanism, that slides forward to open the door and back to lock the door. The car does not have an emergency brake so it is one of the earlier years.
