Truly the happiest bus moment in some time.
And alas, my Lucky Lab Late Night Parking Lot Advisors were in error, the hinge itself was OK. The housing and door pillar weren't aligned properly, remedied with a 2x4 and big hammer. Also, the latch mechanism (Brazil) had a bent actuator tab. And the inner door mechanism rod was too long. And the door bolt (threaded) anchor was stripped out and misshapen. All much much better. All because of an improper repair in 1975. And I've lived with it all this time.
Colin you are fantastic. Don't know what I'd do without ya.
Anyone need a near-impossible to find early bay hinge 1/2?
