Door Hinges for Grantura Mk 2a
Discussion

After door hinges for a Grantura, need 4, any ideas? looking like I will have to get some made. I believe they are Ford Anglia 105E items, have tried that avenue, nothing yet.
Grantura door hinges were to my knowledge custom made by TVR. The later anglia hinges were fitted to Vixen S1 cars on, there may be some exceptions to this but I don't think so!! an anglia hinge does not fit a grantura door though i suppose they could be made to.Steve Reid will either have some or know a man who can make some.

The original hinges were made out of unobtanium. They were certainly not Ford 105E hinges, not sure if they were 100E (I,m old but not that old) but I very much doubt if they were Ford, certainly no Ford markings on any I have seen. They wear on the hinge pins and drop badly in the original form. I had to make some for my car and I think I may have made some spares but not the box sections. I still have the original drawings somewhere for the hinges, A and B posts and the pedal box but not sure where I,ve put them. Time consuming but not difficult to make.
