these are what is on it now. they are twisted and bent, so the door doesn't sit right or close right. apparently the guy i bought it from had it accidentally knocked into reverse in his garage with the door open and hut the garage door frame. they replaced the door but not the hinges
I see that they stacked washers under the hinges to shim the doors. It is darn near impossible to bend these door hinges. More likely the doors themselves got bent in the hinge mounting area. I would take the door off and recheck the mounting area first.

THE DOOR WAS REPLACED THE HING LETS IT SWING TO FAR OPEM AND WILL DAMAGE THE DOOR sorry capslock was on. the hinges are messed up at least the bottom one is for sure
Well, the hinge needs to be removed anyway. I would still check the door opening. the washers are cocking the way the hinge sets on the door. Did you have the door replaced or are you just taking the word of someone else about the hinge damage?
Hinges are what I do.
The problem with the hinge set shown above is the roller is bad and the ramp that the roller is supposed to ride on is corroded.
I take care of everything including those items on a full rebuild.

OK. I said door opening bent (where the hinge mounts) not the door. The door can only open as far as the hinge bar (look at the picture I posted of the door side lower hinge) Unless it is broken off, the hinge cannot open any further.
The clue is the washers...

so how much for top and bottom hinges
No competition, old part vs. reconditioned part...
New solid steel roller vs. metal/plastic roller 50 years old. I can fix yours too.
That is what I do.

I found 1 lower core. And now an upper core. I don't normally have cores since most guys want their originals redone.
$30. for the core and $80. to rebuild. $110.00 plus $15.50 Priority shipping. I still think you have a door opening problem. All those washers top and bottom is not right.

Stand back 10' for your viewing pleasure & Safety
So you don't consider criticizing another members parts as competitive, actually somewhat unprofessional in my opinion. Maybe the OP doesn't want to pay referb prices and is looking for a used part, are you going to make up his mind for him! I wouldn't blame other members for not posting pictures of their parts for fear of criticism. I for one am not going to post my parts now.
Why are you not a "Vendor" instead of a "member"? You approach members with a hard sell.
Nobody is forcing anybody to buy anything. Why so personal? He said he is looking to replace a hinge. I told him what I thought before you posted anything. When you posted a picture I told him what needed to be done to it. I didn't say who to buy a part from. I am just a name on here like you and have no special powers.
I just happen to have a lot of experience with door hinges. Do you ?
I am on all 3 sites mostly on FEBO if you want to go over there.
I buy hinge cores. What do you have and how much do you want for them ?

PM ME YOUR PRICES P;EASE
Ebay.........
I have been on eBay since 1999. I scan for cores daily. I buy cores from everywhere I can. For a real price as they are just cores to me
Cores used to sell for $15. to $50. per set.
Since our cars have recently become " valuable" people think the cores are now some how "collectable" and want almost the same price for cores as I sell completely reconditioned hinges for.
Very few " cores" are acceptable to me as many are broken, modified, or heavily rust pitted.
Just like buying any other part for restoration. Better to start off with a straight, rust free part like a fender than a bent, rusty one and then have to spend many hours to make it straight again.
Which kind of part would you want for your car ?
