Mk1/2 door hinges - which is which?

Post by mini5967 »

Howdy all, got a set of NOS Mk1/2 door hinges that came into my possession a while back as part of a job lot, and which I'm hoping to use during the resto of my '64 850, but I'm trying to work out which ones go exactly where; as I don't have a parts book to hand, I thought I'd throw it out there to you all. I've got 5 of them, and I'm presuming that the numbers stamped at the end furthest away from the engine bay are the key to where they go - I have a 13, 14, 15 and 2 x 16. Hope that all makes sense - over to you folks…

Is one number stamped on the A panel side, and the other on the door side? If that's the case, then they're all 7 8 ones - bugger! Thanks anyway - at least I can use one, keep one as a spare, and try and flog/trade/swap the others…
