The door hinges came back from the welder. The only thing welded was the little rectangular stop block adjacent to the hinge pin or the hole in the second shot. The first is of the assembled hinge with the pin in location next to the stop. This is intended to stop the hinge pin from becoming frozen in the arm and causing the holes to become rounded out in the hinge box. Also note in the second shot that the arm itself has been drilled out and a bronze insert placed. This should now never seize and if it wears a lot, then the bronze bushing can be drilled out and replaced.
