Worked like a charm! Just finished it. Did the door jambs on the weekend. I should have used a thiner sheet of evergreen. Might be a bit to ridged didnt really bend around the interior tub. Very happy with the hinges though
Dang it Coop, Now I gotta redo my current builds doors, I think I like this better then the old standard hung, old style just flops around too much. Thanks brother, very nice video!! Good man
I've got that cuda 70 mine is blue with glitter on it for my girlfriend ! Wish I seen your video before I painted it ! I'd done the doors , hood , and trunk the same ! Never did any cutting on any cars or trucks yet ! But will . Thanks it was a big help !
Great tips! I'm gonna try it myself very soon. Maybe I'll manage to hide the hinges into the door panel (maybe you do the same in the next step). The model in working on is also a 1:18, a little more forgiving maybe.
Thanks I hope the video was helpful. Let me know how they work. I have been using them and I am fairly happy although they are a little trick to build.
How do you deal with fitting issues due to the new door hinges that have been placed? like the interior panels mostly thanks in advance and very nice tutorial man!
I am doing the doors for the first time. I have watched a few tutorials this is the one i want to try. Do you have any tricks for filling in the door jams? Huge space there kind of stumped. 64 gto. Great vid
Interesting question. I use sheet styrene to make the jamb. I am building a 69 charger right now and need to build the jambs. I will see if I can put a video together that shows how I do it.
Well that is a little trial and error. Some of it depends on the kit. The 68 Charger I have done is a little tighter fit than the 70 Mustang I am currently doing. I do a lot of mocking up with the interior tub and panels, taping everything in place and checking the fit. I try to sand a little more than normal to allow for painting. Hope this was helpful. Let me know if you need more info.
Good stuff, needed a refresher! I been trying to do this 90° bend "pin hinge" so the door opens n pops off like a pro mod would! harder then it sounds..lol, I like the 2 piece way you do it Darren, So do you put a rocker type panel along the bottom of the door to?
I like the way you do your open doors ,your way is simple and good tank you for your tips...
iam registred on your site for moore tricks ...

Thanks! I hope to get some more up soon. Still working on getting the video equipment and software to play nice.
Glad the hinges worked for you. I am still messing with the 69 charger and haven't built the jambs yet. maybe this weekend. KUTGW

I love the way your hinge works and it's so simple!!! I'm going to try it on my 69 Charger Build...thanks!!!
I could never get the bends right with the wire, so I tried the twisty ties that come with garbage bags. They work pretty good.

What kind of saw is that you used for sawing your doors, and where can you get them?

Good video Darren, Thanks!

Where did you get your brass wire
Good stuff, needed a refresher! I been trying to do this 90° bend "pin hinge" so the door opens n pops off like a pro mod would! harder then it sounds..lol, I like the 2 piece way you do it Darren, So do you put a rocker type panel along the bottom of the door to?
Great job!!
Another great tip
+Samuel Vasquez Thanks!
This is way cool. Thanks
+Benny Gilardi Thank you!
Nice video
What gauge wire diameter and where did you get the brass. Thanks
+Arthur Fricchione To be honest I don't remember. I picked it up at a local craft store. I will see if I can find out the gauge and get back to you.
Thanks Darren probably around .035 - .040 Appox. Will check my local craft stores. Haven't seen it in any hobby shops on line
Thanks!
do you sell the hinges if you do i will buy some of them,,, you can put them on ebay and make money,,,,,thanks
Thanks.
I use 14 g copper wire 1/8 in plastic tub
How many pieces and how long?
Not sure I understand the question? I do say and show how many pieces and how long in the video.
😳😳😳
should be alright from there on...ill do it by trial and error i guess:)
