Hello all, I have a 1971 1750 GTV, and while refurbishing the door hinges I've discovered a significant bend in the upper, left door hinge.  Does anyone have any advice on straightening the cast aluminium without damaging it?

Thanks in advance.

They also have a hinge kit... which may be the issue?

Other suppliers available, you're mileage may vary, see a Dr etc., if the virus persists
