I appreciate wanting originals but we use repro hinges all the time and they work very well. As with all parts, a little fitting is needed. Once the doors are on, who will know, besides you, that the hinges are new? Paul www.severngaspumps.com

Once the doors are on, who will know, besides you, that the hinges are new? John, if you are not worried about a 100 point restoration. You don't need the hinges. Doors will stay in place and operate as lift off doors with the bottom lift up, latching mechanism. Save the money and effort for now. They can be added at a later time; if you wanted to.

That's true I didn't think of that Dave. I suppose I'll do that for now.

Ok so now that is on the back burner now I'm going on the search for a ROUGH red crown or pure pump plate 3-4.5 condition but must have at least two mount holes not rusted out.

Hinges are an Excuse to open the doors to show someone what's Not inside that should be, PLUS an easy way to Scratch/Chip/DAMAGE the paint!
Guys that leave the guts in, they remove the Nozzle, lift the lever & Listen to the electric motor! NOTHING else works as there isn't any liquid for VR to Calculate the volume.
