Door Hinge Installation HELP - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've searched around and can't seem to find a thread explaining how to install a door hinge. I bought my car door and it was (essentially) missing the upper door hinge. The problem is it seems as though the bolt holes aren't threaded and so the bolts would need nuts on the back BUT there's no access to the space from inside/below/above. Is my only option to cut open the kickpanel behind the AC vent?? I feel like I'm missing something pretty obvious here...

The truck is a 1971 GMC K2500 4x4 and here's a photo:
