    does anyone know if the door hinges are the same for all 49-51 passenger cars?? my 51 victoria needs driver side hinges(i have an ad in the classifieds), but i'm, not sure if victoria and convertible hinges are the same as coupe or sedan hinges...

    Can you put a picture up of your hinges? I have a 49 sedan I can eyeball them for you.
     
  3. Can't you just replace the hinge pins?
    A friend has his hinges drilled out to a larger pin size.
    Works good.

    They are all the same. I had one break one of the ears off when the pin broke and I guess I lost it. So I had to get some from a junk yard, from a 51 Vicky. Sucks drilling the mounting screws out but I got it. Not sure about now but back then NO ONE made replacement ones. I was on the verge of buying some from that Rocky Mountain hinge place.
