okay, now this raises a question...  why take the entire hinge off?  i don't
understand that.  on our 1971 800A, as well as the '68 800 we had for a
while, the hinge pins come out.  all four on both trucks had wing-nuts on
the threaded end of the hinge-pin.  all we have to do if we want to take the
doors off is take loose the wing-nuts, pull the pins, and off come the
doors.  is this not the recommended method for taking the doors off?  is
there some reason to not remove the pins?
