lets play name that hinge... i gotta find a replacement

the top part of the hinge that was holding my deck lid on fell off today (metal dowl was wearing out and pushed itself 1/2 way out all the time and i finally forgot to pound it in!)...

anyways, these were a swap meet buy (39 chevy maybe?), so help me out on finding out what they were from so i can locate a replacement..

ps - if anyone has one you should help a poor guy out!

 

British sportscar? Like a Triumph, MG, Austin Healy or similar maybe?

 

well its almost for sure american i think... the 39 buicks are almost dead on matches, but doesnt have teh small ridge on the rear of the smaller 1/2,.,,

i would settle for that, i still have the large 1/2, i just need to find a smaller half that will work.. i planned on getting much nicer ones before the car gets final paint anyways

 

You can proabably still find nice used ones at swap meets. These look like 40 Chevys to me.

 

yeah the swap meets stil have em.. problem is there isnt one for a while.. im hoping to shop online or get hooked up here...

i would rather that then ghetto rig it to drive the car

 

Check your PM's.

 

39 chevy FOR SURE.. just confirmed..

ANYONE GOT ONE>?

 

I was gonna say 39 chevy but you beat me to it.

I know I had one 20 years ago, but I have no idea if it's still around or where. I doubt it.

 

If I find one at the AACA show & swap meet tomorrow should I get it for you? What's your $$$ limit?

 

they are cheap really, go for like $5 a piece or so usually..

 

I really believe 41-48 chevy. There is a difference between left and right. I might have one buried in my swap meet trailer.

 

41- 48 repros are available.. I think I gave my old pair to clark new ones were sorta $$$ for the quality..

 

these are dead the same unless i have two of one side?

 

bump in case a weekender can help me out with one
