Okay,

I have read the threads. I want to know if there is any source for purchasing the original spec sheets that GM used to make the pot metal hinges. If I can get the spec sheets with all the original dimensions, I can machine my own new hinges to spec, but I can do it with a stronger metal that won't stretch. Does anybody know where to find spec sheets for specific parts?

Thanks,
Richard

Believe me, we have tried to find anything on them, I talked to a bunch of NCRS guys, and they all said the same thing, NOPE!!!

I even spent a few days trying to find the company that made the kit for GM, and even sold it as an upgrade kit to the older C3's. I can't remember the name right now, but they are gone too...

So far my CAD drawing is the about all we have for you to use, I can post it here and if you can make hinges, please let me know....

Dawg: I believe the name was cars & concepts, they were out of michigan and the kit went for about $4500.00
