Need new/used hood hinges (?)

Anyone know where I can get a straight pair of hood hinges for a W123 (1980) ??

My hood blew up in a wind storm a few weeks ago, and the hood hit the windshield. Not to mention dropped it’s back corners into the vent/ wiper deck. I got it to close, but it sits too low now in the back now when closed. From what I’ve been told, the hinges are bent (“sprung”).

Any ideas/experiences/information on this matter is greatly appreciated.

I’ll post this on the diesel page as well.

why don`t you check some of your local wrecking yards. I was checking on some at a MB yard and they wanted $100.00 for the pair.

our local PNP usually has a few 123`s
