    Question Door Pocket question

    So as my 69 goes back together I notice one of the the driver door pocket hinges has broken at the pivot. I was thinking abouttrying to match up another hinge by Stanley to make this contact secure again. Anybody have any better suggestions?

    Buy the most beat up map pocket you can find with the hinges still on it. They are the same and usually are never worn because you never flip that sucka down

    I am pretty sure I have a spare somewhere, let me see, but you are welcome to it. If it's of use let me know?

    How much you want to bet that those 8 NOS hinges came from 4 of the sorriest map pockets you ever came across.

    Good grief, Joe, you're getting into that project! Must be the cold weather.
