Hi,
plan to use these on the Melos, when all the bling goes on...
Hinges
if that does not work go to Europa Specialist Spares > Brightwork > Hinges

Mine is currently using narrow hinges, bolted onto bodywork and bonnet.
it just opens back to the screen doesn't appear to show any stree cracks.. but i may re-inforce the new ones just in case!

they also look a bit like the boot hinges that are fitted to the Pilgrim Sumo that Mark Evans builds in A Car is Born if that helps
