RE: Hinges on engine cover



Scot,
You do have to go from the inside of the car and remove the cover just underneath the window to get at the other hinge bolts. I had lost a stud off of my hinge as well. I had my rusted hinges sandblasted, and one of my machinist friends reattached the stud using "silver solder." I wasn't so sure this would hold up well, but it seems to be fine. I repainted the hinges with a rust inhibiting primer coat and a semi flat black top coat and they still look great 3 years later. Hope this helps.
