I need a kind TR4 or 250 owner to measure and send me the length of his rear boot hinges:
The hinges for the hood of my 1958 Elva Courier broke and I have been told that they match those off of the rear of TR4's/250's (Yes, I know that TR4's were not made in 1958 but supposedly the hinge pattern was already in existence, etc.)
In any case the hinges that I have are the usual British pattern--pointy on both ends and rounded on the top to a crest.
They are 4.9" long overall when connected. The short section (attached to the surround)is about 1.25" from tip to the hinge pin and the long section (attached to the hood) is about 3.65" from tip to the hinge pin. There is one mounting stud in the short section and two studs in the long section. The sections are each about .65" thich at the point of connection. The hinges are "handed" left and right to make up for the considerable deck camber.
Any help will be sincerely appreciated.
