alex bonino Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Hello all. Slowly but surely making progress... Found a few more pesky rust spots hiding behind the front clip sheet metal <SIGH>Anyway, thinking about next steps and was wondering about a door hinge bushing/pin source. Called Florida Fasteners and all I got from them on first generation Rivs was "huh"?, so no luck there.Also, Id be interested what other members have done as far as body/paint sequencing as far as next steps goes (eg., remount all sheet metal and adjust gaps?, leave sheet metal on for stripping, repair, skim coating and priming?, remove sheet metal for paint? etc etc.) Not quite there yet though.thanks folks!

alex bonino Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 No one has procured door hinge pins & bushings lately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest REX STALLION Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I would imagine that GM used the same pin/bushing combo for years on all models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the 'E' bodies at GM seem to have had some pecularities - maybe to handle the weight of that massive door? I dunno.I will research and post what I find.
