I have a '31 Vicky I want to install side mirrors on. The mounting bracket installs about the top door hings by removing the door hinge pin and re-inserting a new pin through the mirror bracket and hinge. Can't seem to get the hinge pin out. I have done the WD-40/ Liquid Wrench routine; bought and attempted removal with air impact chisel; tried pin punch/hammer; was advised not to use Proto-power hydraulic or risk bending "stuff". Still won't budge. I suspect the pin was originally a soft spline smacked into the hole. Car is a total restore and don't dare nick it. Shall I try a drill bit . . . or start over again with another car? |
