Default 1929 Coupe cowl post repair

The drivers door on the coupe I'm restoring was bent way forward at one time, deforming and tearing out the mounting on the cowl post.
I was able to repair the upper two hinge areas, but the lower one is pretty bad.
I would like to find a post or that part of the post to patch in. I see there are no repos offered. Is the tudor the same? Has anyone done this repair before?

I've seen the 1928/29 pillars on flea pay before. All the coupe pillars should be basically the same in those years.

28-29 Coupe and Tudor door hinge pillars are the same, as are the doors I believe.

As stated above, tudor and coupe's A pillars are identical. I have the lower section of the A pillar I would sell (below the windshield). I live in Twin Cities, Minnesota area if you need a decent replacement. I can send you a picture(s) if you want, if I had your email address.
