Default Re: 1938/1939 Ford Woody Hinges Question

while I agree with Toby that the roofline and door profile above the beltline are different on a 39 than a 40, I cannot believe that 40 hinges are different than 39.. as a 39 cowl, where the hinges mount is identical to a 40 cowl.. additionally I have had 36 hinges that are visually identical to a 40 hinge.. that said.. perhaps in application there are slight variations that make the 40s only fit 40's but I find that very hard to believe. I am certain that somewhere within ford literature a part number for door hinges is called out which would ultimately answer the question..

of other note.. When I needed front door hinges for my 40 ford woodie, treehouse did not have the hinges available, so I've reproduced my own and will be offering reproduction hinges for ford woodies in the very near future..
