The hinges on my old 'Westy' Weekender was the same as my buddy's Westy.
However, the regular 'non-Westy' Weekender bench is a totally different
system of hinges.

I can take pictures of the hinges but I do not have a Westy bench to put them
on. I originally bought it to install in my 87 GL so that I can make room for
something like a VR6 in the back. Once I got the hinges, I discovered that
they were for Westies only. So here they sit waiting for me to get a Westy
with an upright engine conversion to match.
