Andrew,
What if you drilled out the pin-hole to get it round again and stepped up to
a slightly larger pin?

The (steel) hinges on my TR3B sag and the door drops down when the
sidescreens are fitted.  I had new pins inserted last year, but I don't
think it was enough.  Unfortunately the hinges are "personalized" for the
car:  the work involved in getting new hinges to fit is daunting.

Does anyone have the name of someone who could somehow restore these hinges
and tighten them up for me?
