Wanted: Large bottom door hinges for VE-8-35x

Hello! I recently picked up a nice condition VE-8-35x (only missing three albums) and both of the bottom hinges are broken. The "travel arm" for lack of a better term is the piece that is broken. I need a right and a left side hinge if anyone has one.
Thanks, Ben

Those are the small size hinges, the ones on the 8-35 are much larger.
Thanks, Ben

Ben,
Unfortunately those hinge stops are often broken. Here are the dimensions of the bottom door hinges, they may help us determine if orphans in our parts drawers are what you need. They were used only on the 8-35 and 8-12.

HMV used similar hinges in the reentrant machines, but without the door stops (my 194 doesn't have door stops).
