Default Are 33-34 ford decklid/trunk hinges being reproduced?

If so, where can I get some?

If not, where can I get some?

Thanks,

I don't see them on the site.

I get the impression that they are discontinued.

Wescott is having them made and is the only current source I am aware of. You can find them listed by numerous sources online, but they are old listing and do not exist. The ones Wescott has are stainless and not cheap, but the only show in town!

We buy the from C&G. Their catalog shows hinges for 33-34 roadster, Cabriolet, and coupe. Their tech line in 760-871-0445.Their hinges are not cheap, but like most of their items, are top quality, which is more than I can say for some other vendors. They had the only acceptable hinges for my '47 convertible.
