Corvair Greenbriers had an 8 door option in 1961, with double hinged doors
on both sides.

I think some of the older busses were built this way.  I have read
somewhere that some baywindow busses were made this way, and there were
split window busses with two sets of hinged doors back there.
Of course, Chrysler claims to have invented this idea in the '90s!!
