Need a top left door hinge for a 63 Dodge. One photo is the existing hinge and the other is the top hinge from AMD. Anybody know what gives here. They are very different.

Thanks
Jack

I have a complete set of hinges for 62-65 if you need them.
 
Can you tell me what do they look like. Left or right photo.

What shape are in and I only need drivers side
 
The lower hinge has the spring and just flip it to fit either right or left. Can't post a pic as I'm not at home.
 
If you get a chance please post a photo. My bottom one looks nothing like the photo either.
 
I will go out on a limb here..... is the reason you're replacing the hinges because the brash bushings and/or "pins" have worn away making the door "wobble" a little bit? I've rebuilt a few sets of hinges with this problem by welding the hole in the hinge & re-drilling it to exactly fit the O.D. of an Autozone hinge repair kit on a drill press. I've never figured out how to fix the "bottom cam-roller" on the lower hinge this easy.
 
Hanover Mopar. The AMD hinge looks correct to me, and is an upper hinge. The reason they look different is the original hinge appears to be missing the thick looped
rod looking piece that is part of what helps the door stay stationary when the door is opened all the way. I'm guessing that at present the door will not stay put when you do open it all the way, but will start to close on it's own. I'm having the same issues
with the driver side door/ hinge on my '63 Plymouth. I'm going to try to rebuild mine
( new bushings ), but I have all the pieces. Just my 2 cents. Good luck.
