Looking for a Peterbuilt door hinge

[Scott Colmer]

My internet search did not bring me anything. I am looking for functioning door hinges for a 88 Peterbuilt. It looks like a piano hinge.

Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

You could make your own out of small brass or steel tubing alot of tutoriarls in the information section

I know I've seen those by some photo etch company, but it might have been military stuff. I'll check on it.

Check the Model Car Garage web site below, 5th item down is the piano hinge for butterfly hoods and doors. I have used these on 3 model trucks with pleasing results.
