26-7 coupe door hinges!! arg!!

Post by Les Schubert » Thu Aug 31, 2023 4:21 pm

Is there a trick to removing the upper front door hinge from the car. I managed to remove the bolts and I can get the hinge to move a little bit but they don’t want to come out of the slot!!
Any ideas/ advice would be appreciated!!

Maybe I’ve figured it out. I see there is a third bolt that is hidden!!

Sometimes you need a slide hammer to pull them out…. But yes, get all the fasteners out first.
