I’ve read dozens and dozens of threads, forums and post regarding sagging/wobbly door hinges. On my 120 ots, 3 out of 4 seem to be in fairly proper shape, other than the drivers lower hinge (pin?). I can lift the door up about 1/8” and see the the hinge arm is moving. I could live with it IF… the door striker plate lined up when when closing the door.

I’ve read about pulling the front left wing to access the hinge box. Not goin’ to happen. I’ve read about roto cutting the sheet metal in the sill or interior to access then rewelding a panel in place after the hinge (pin?) rebuild. Not goin’ to happen. Someone please tell me that there’s a way to access and remove the drivers side lower hinge box without ripping the the car apart. I’ve spent… 3 1/2 years and tripple the money (But alas, I know here that I’m merely preaching to the choir). My intention is to make this cars as reliable and as safe a driver as the day I came off off the showroom floor and not a show car, so it has most all of the patina of a 60 year old car. Please, please and double please.
