Anyone know a source for new door hinges for the f1 pickup trucks. My body man tells me mine are wallowed out and need replaced before painting the truck, but I can't seem to locate any.

I don't know about the hinges on your F1 but, the ones on my 1945 1/2 ton are riveted to the door and only use screws on the body half. Riveting new hinges to the door would be difficult. Typically, the drivers door hinges on my truck are worn and the door clunks whenever I hit a bump. I'm going to pull my door and bore and sleeve the hinge pin holes and make or buy new pins.

Where are you located? Any hinge from an F-1 thru F-8 will work.
