At the moment, no.. but I'll be doing this on my own soon and once I have an idea as to what is involved I'd be happy to come down and help out.

Wouldn't be for at least a month though.

Can you make it to Milton? I can help this evening if you'd like.
Do you have new hinges?
Let me know.

Cheers

Can you elaborate on this?

It's rare that worn hinges will prevent a door from opening altogether. Often the issues caused by worn hinges can be temporarily alleviated by lifting the door at the back.

Sorry, by "door wont open" I actually meant it was binding on the fender and actually unable to be opened

So the door is not attached to your car any longer?
