Looking great Chemong!
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

That body really looks GREAT!  Nice job. I didn't realize that the older firewalls really look the same as the 33-35 Standard series ones. That's going to be a nice ride! :)

  Chemong,

I have the lower hinge, it is yours if you need it.  Ghost  did me a good turn, I'm just passing it forward.

  Terry,

I wanted to send you this pic first to see if this is what you want,

The long hinge is for the  bottom on a 30, but I think that the mate, which is shorter, is for the top.  It could easily be extended by wielding a piece on.

Do you still want them?
