    I have a 36 Plymouth and the hinges on both doors are broken. Does anyone rebuild them or sell new ones? I don't want hidden hinges.
    Thanks for any help.

    they shouldn't be too hard to find used
    but I don't think anybody is repopping them

    they should be the same as the '35 Plymouth
    and '35-'36 Dodge and possibly same year Desoto and Chrysler

    although they are very simple hinges and shouldn't be too difficult to make a set

    Thanks Paul,
    Probably making a new set will be easier than finding them.

    anybody know if PlyDo is still in business?
    I never dealt with them but they advertised new and used parts..

    I sold a '35 Dodge sedan carcas to a fellow HAMBer not too long ago,
    I'll send him a pm..

    Thanks,
    the Andy site looks hopeful. I'm going to give them a call tomorrow. And they're not to far from home.

    I have some used '37 door hinges, you can have them for the price of shipping, but I don't know how similar they are. Body style changed in '37. PM me with pictures of yours, and I'll compare them.

    Here are 2 pictures. One is the drivers side frame and the other is the passenger side door hinge.

    Hi, 36 Desoto S-1 series should fit, but I don't know about the Airflow. I need the lower passenger side front door hinge if that doesn't break up the set that Marcia needs. How are the complete front doors? What else is good on the car?
    Thanks, Bob

    Hi. Door hinges are really hard to find from the 30's. Plydo.com is in business and they have alot of parts that no one else has. I am in need of 34 plymouth coupe doors. When I do find them, Im going to repop them and sell them.... I got supposed a clean door from them only to have it swiss cheesed..They took care of me with free parts to make up for it. I guess the deal was just ok...

    Im going to build my own hinges. Im tired of looking. I will offer them for sale. I will leave the arms to be cut and drilled to suit for other than 33-34 plymouth coupes...

    Bob Drake has a universal hinge on their site with dimensions, maybe that could work.

    Thanks everyone, for all the info. I have spent the winter working on the 33 Dodge. Maybe I'll get back to the Plymouth next year.
