Anyone running Grant hinges?
for the bagged guys, is there anyone running the grant kustom hinges?
ive seen the one 5windowpickup is running, but i havent seen anyone else. i was thinking of ordering these by the end of the week so i can get my hood on and aligned so i can put this thing together for body work.

Re: Anyone running Grant hinges?
Don't know about Grant's. Most guys here are running Porterbuilt hinges.

Re: Anyone running Grant hinges?
I saw a guy who made them bolt on as well. Seemed not hard at all.
All the others I've seen were welded and looked good man. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Anyone running Grant hinges?
If you want cheap what about using a set of fox body mustang ones they might work with some work.These are them stainless http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...ood-Hinge-Pair or maybe a pair of 3 gen f body ones they close down almost to nothing but would have to be mounted to the fenders.

Re: Anyone running Grant hinges?
Kev let us know how they work out for you,Oneoffstroker same thing for you if you do it let me know how it works out for you,I'm kinda a junkyard rat and seen my step dad do enough odds things over the years to know anything can work if you mess with it long enough lol.
