[old ugly]

my wide bodied open air huckster (AKA farm truck) needs some door hinges. i am curious what the huckster folks used for hinges.
maybe gate type hinges?

thanks

I've seen piano hinges used.

Stainless piano hinges.Can be bought at probably dozens of places online,and at box stores.Won't make rusty streaks,and all you have to do to hide the shinyness is to hit them with a magic marker.No thick real paint to gum up and chip,leaving shiny spots all over.They come predrilled,with chamfered holes,and you just cut to length with a hacksaw.

OU: very nice craftsman work!
Mine is a kit. Will see how the door is mounted.
Think it is piano hinges.

Mine are piano hinges from Wagon Works (wagonwork2@aol.com ) in Iowa. They are much heavier than ordinary hardware store units. Need to be painted black, but it's a model A.

i have bought stuff from wagon works , great service.
BUT, at this point in time it is way to expensive to bring US purchased items to the Canada.
