Rear Deck Hinges, white metal.

Post by clive Lockwood »

Hi All,
Well i,ve been busy again this time working on the rear deck hinges and eventually come up with these, see pics, after much trial and error these hinges will fit ok, i have been studying photos etc of these parts and to be honest the real hinges appear slightly bigger than mine but after various mock ups the only size that will actually fit and still look ok are these, we seem to be limited by the vent covers for size of hinge.
The only problem for me is enough time to drill them all and fit pins so if your interested and dont mind drilling youself give me a pm, they will be cast with an indent to mark the drilling centres, it,s an easy job but takes time.

Hi Clive,

Your rear deck hinges for the Panzer III look great too.
Could you add these, and the Tow Cable ends to my previous order of
4 Front Hinges and 2 Front Headlights.

Here's my email address, so that you can let me know what the total for above is + P&P

Many thanks, Cheers

Hi Clive,
could you can machine a core from Teflon rod the exact size of your pin and put it in the mold? Then you wouldn't have to drill out the hinge? Just a thought - maybe you have the mold made already. Great looking hinges at any rate.

Hi Clive

The hinges look good, how much are you selling a complete set for.

I'm definitely interested in the rear as well as the front hinges (and the headlights) -- but have you worked out the costs yet and payment - PayPal possibly?
Thanks
