sp250 bonnet hinges

Post by pflanaga »

I have 8 boot hinges, 4 of them new when manners mixed up my order for bonnet hinges. Any leads for getting 2 bonnet hinges? Are they identical to any other car?

The hinges are the same for the bonnet and boot. LH hinges are part number 65/669043 and RH are 65/669044.

They are similar to the hinges used on the Austin Healey 3000 and those on the Morris Minor 1000. Both of these can be used on the SP with some modification and packing to accommodate the slight difference in profile, however the genuine SP hinges are unique to the SP and do not appear on any other car.

I got both boot/bonnet hinges through the Club, specifically Laurence Jones about 8 years ago, might be worth firing him a email. His details are in pasSPort
