Post subject:  Streetcar Clerestory Window Hinges

I am looking for replacement clerestory window hinges for Capital Traction 522 (1898 American Car Co.). The original hinges are lost to history. I have photos of hinges on "sister" car CTCo 303 at the Smithsonian. As part of my search I have contacted Adlake to see if the hinges were a stock item in the late 1800s - early 1900s.

Thanks for any referrals.

Wesley

The end windows use a single pin hinge.
