Cleaned the shop. Then removed the right door. Bottom hinge rusted solid. Top hinge, the hinge pin never installed correctly! Pin made top hole, completely missed part going into door portion of hinge. Had to cut springs to remove it. 1951 absolutely no wear on pin or hinge hole, amazing.

Bored hinges for oversized hinge bushing. Had to build-up much of the hinge parts to correct for severe corrosion, the grind and file.
