Door adjustment on my '63

I am trying to find a way to adjust my doors on my '63. They are sagging a bit and I want to bring them up so I don't have to slam them shut. All of the latches adjust side to side not up and down?

Re: Door adjustment on my '63

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but if a door is sagging, it is probably because the hinge pins in the hinge are worn or bent. Which happens over time.

They make door hinge pin replacements. Or you could just replace the whole hinge too.
