Are the door hinges on the Hundred the same or different for left/right doors? And, are they the same for upper and lower, or different?
Thanks for any info.
According to my "AUSTIN-AUSTIN-HEALEY 100 PARTS LIST' printed Feb 1958,Hinge top, right hand is #14B 1982,top left hand is 14B 1983, bottom right is #14B 1985, bottom left hand is #14B 1986. So I will have to say that they are different, also I forgot what great pictures this old manual has, cheers

I've always thought the hand(?) drawn illustrations in the Healey manuals were fantastic, and spot-on accurate. I have an old American auto shop manual from the sixties and it uses quite a few of the Healey illustrations (without giving credit).
I've spent more than a few hours trying to get our BN2's door hinges to cooperate and can attest that they will only go together one way if you expect the door to close (or open for that matter).
I marked mine as I removed them so they would go back to the original location. Even so, they are not fun to line up. Having a second person to help steady the door is a great help.
