Celica Ra28 Bonet Hinges

[GTRA28]

Can anybody help me, i have to replace my bonnet hinge on the passenger side of my 1978 Celica RA28

I have already been in touch with my very good supplier 'Auto Base Toyota' in Bath (where i managed to purchace a hinge for the drivers side in August 05) but have been told they were discontinued 10 years ago and they have now sold out

Can anybody sell or know of anybody who is selling this particular item??

Also my 'Distributor Vacuum Advance' has packed up, not the end of the world as i'm not one for drag racing, but its affecting my tickover. Again disscontinued by 'Auto Base Toyota' so i am searching the globe for one of them too.

The Bonnet hinge is my main priority.

Alternatively if i could get hold of a copy of the orriginal technical drawings for the hinges i could get them made at my local metal engineers.

Here's Hoping

I have just bought a red GT and a blue ST from eBay. Am in the process of doingg up the red GT and using the blue ST as a source of parts. This may take some time. IF I have a spare hinge left over Iwill let you know. Currently both cars hinges are not in very good condition (bent/mangled) so I have to decide which ones I will keep.
