    Removable hinge pins?

    Does anyone make replacement hinges for the rear ambulance doors that have removable hinge pins? This way you could always keep the hinges fastened to the body and its matching door separately and join them as needed with inserting a hinge pin with a cross/safety pin. You could easily remove...
