HI,

I understand there is to be a left and right hood hinge. My car, an early 1A
( 1966 model assembled in 1965) seems to have been assembled with two
identical hinges. In looking at 2  Series 5 Alpines I have they are the
same.both identical hinges. I have a set of hinges from a wreck series 4 and
they have opposite offset bolt pattern where the two bolts reside. What
gives here? Since my car has some round corners and some square on hood,
trunk and doors the assumption is that they were grabbing any leftover parts
at the beginning of the series 1A that ultimately became square corner. I
wonder if the same applies to some hood hinges. Any ideas on this?

Rick
