I purchased the brass nuts and plastic bushes from TVR car parts, and then got a local firm to make stainless hinges. From memory, the bits from TVR car parts were a couple of quid each, got the hinges made for £10 each.

Thanks for that! I can see I'll need to get HandsLikeAPaedophile(tm), available from B&Q and Machine Mart...
By the amount of movement on this car, I suspect the bottom captive nut is no longer a prisoner.
