Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 28 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 28 | I have a 45 Burb with rear clam shell doors, not the usual barn door style. I'm looking for the two hinges for the upper half of the clam shell. Bottom hinges I have are OK but they could stand to be replaced also. I'm also looking for any sites dealing in 41-46 Burb parts, etc. Any help will be greatly appreciated. | | | | | Joined: May 2004 Posts: 96 Member | | Member Joined: May 2004 Posts: 96 | What years will work?

GrantW, are they the same as the AD hinges? Sometimes GM continued similar parts for years. The AD upper gate may be heavier, hence they may be different too. I will try and take a picture of mine. Do you have a picture of what you are looking for? .......g | | | | | Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 28 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 28 | Sorry, don't have any photos handy. Not sure if AD will work but I'll try to find one and take a look. Go ahead and send a photo if you have one. Thanks.
BTW I'll be gone all weekend so you may not get a reply from me right away today....... | | | | | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 1,781 Master Gabster | | Master Gabster Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 1,781 | Krissly1 saved me fro trying to post a picture for you...thanks. I found this on ebay and this should help with comparison with what you need and what Krissly1 sent. Hope this helps.......g | | | | | Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 28 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 28 | Sorry guys, the pictures are being stripped before I can see them. I know where there is a 47 burb. I take a look at it next time I'm in that area of town.... | | | | | Joined: May 2004 Posts: 96 Member | | Member Joined: May 2004 Posts: 96 | Grant, Click on my Webshots link. The hinges are in there. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 28 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 28 | Sorry, the ADs won't work. What's left of the one in my 45 are pretty bad but I'll try to get a digital picture over the holiday weekend and send it out next Monday, providing it isn't raining or snowing all weekend here in Albuquerque, New Mexico
BTW, nice to find an active vintage Burb group active here at STOVEBOLT.

I know they are from the wagon, but you never know what GM part will fit. Thinking along those lines, have you checked the interchange books to see what vehicle may be a donor? | | |
