[TR] fix for a stripped TR3 hood hinge bolt

the previous owner overtightened the starboard bonnet hinge and stripped
out the threads.  it is what my dad used to call "pot metal"... soft and
friable.

I know I can buy another one for 50 bucks at Moss but wonder if epoxy would
work or maybe trying to re thread with an oversize stainless steel bolt?
