New to me camper, missing door.

I bought a vintage camper the other day at an auction, its missing its door. The lower part is there, the top is gone. The opening is 24.5" x 40.5". The lower door is made with 1" square steel tubing with fiberglass over top. (The steel is embedded into the glass door). The upper has an aluminum frame but there's no sign of it ever having hinges attached, so my guess is that it had some sort of flap or soft door?
There's no brand on the camper, its old, uses 15" wheels and measures 10' long by 7.5" wide. The lower body is fiberglass over steel framing, the floor is 3/4" plywood, the top is fiberglass, and the midsection is very stiff canvas, wood, and aluminum.
Its old, judging by the wiring and other components its mid to late 60's.

My only concern at the moment is to get a door on it to keep out the weather.

I was thinking of just going to someone who makes aluminum windows and doors and seeing if they can make me a frame from aluminum that I can fiberglass over? Then all I'd need to do is mount the door with a piano hinge to the existing frame?

I'm totally at sea trying to visualize this rig! It has upper and lower fiberglass sections separated by a canvas covered midsection? And the door opening is only 40.5 inches tall?

Are you sure this isn't a popup that someone sort of made permanently popped up????

I agree with an earlier poster that requested pictures...
