Good '56 doors are in demand as they are a one year only product. Bottom six inches missing from a door skin does not equal a good door, IMHO. ...... It very well could be a very salvageable door.

See, that's the problem...everybodys definition of "good shape" is different. I live in SoCal, what "good shape" means to me is a LOT different than someone who lives in the rust belt. It's much better to give a clear and accurate description right up front and then let the reader decide if they are in fact in "good shape".
Case in point, last month I bought a pair of 56 doors at the Long Beach Performance Swap Meet for $80. They were bare doors and had been sandblasted and primered. These particular doors will need a little work but they are very solid. At the price I paid I feel that I got a good deal even for SoCal...but in the rust belt these would be worth MUCH more.

Not to be a smart a** but why would we want to look at them? You asked a question looking for an answer but did not provide any information or pictures. Like Charlie and Ray said, who's definition of good. If a guy can't weld the one door sounds like scrap but if he has skills and tools he can make it work.
Like a former boss at a speed shop I worked at would say when asked what he wanted for a particular piece "What ever the market will bare!"
Do a little research and list them in the sale area.
Good luck.

Solid 56 doors bring from $75.00 up here in the Midwest. You can still find pretty solid doors from Farm Trucks & Fire engines.
