    Considering stainless door hinges on the highboy roadster. Speedway offers them specifically for the 28-29. Brookville shows the same number for all Model A years. Mac's shows 2 bolt lowers 28-29 and 3 bolt lowers 30-31. Appreciate information from anyone knowledgeable on using these hinges. Regards, Ron

    I haven't seen the stainless hinges, but reproduction steel ones are not bent/wrapped as well as originals around the pin and they wobble. I'm using originals on my '30. Bob

    28/29's are not interchangeable with 30/31's. There are also two styles of 1930. two hole and three hole. The early 30's had two hole hinges on the lower A pillar. I would determine what you have and look for a set of originals. They come up every now and then on Ebay.
     
  4. here are the links to our 1928-29 & 1930-31 roadster door hinge sets, these are the correct replacement for the model A ford roadster bodies, like all reproduction parts there may be some adjusting to do since the bodies are all man made and each one can be a little different, the cost of the hinge kits are $ 140.00 , these are not available in stainless steel, only steel, let us know if you need any more information or would like to place an order. thanks

  5. As you can see in Brookfield's pictures, 28-29, and 30-31 hinges are not the same.
