Now I know yesterday was a Monday.
I mis-understood.
The repair for your hinge is easy.
Go to home depot. Purchase a hinge that is about 12 inches long.
Mount the hinge at the
BOTTOM of the door jamb.
Invert the door so that the lock is at the top, and set it into the jamb.
Fasten the hinge at what is now the bottom of the door.
The end result will give you an opening door with the hinge at the bottom. You will no longer have to take the door off so that you can access the back of the reefer.
Airstream changed to this setup in later years.
You have also eliminated the "J" hinge which has always been a pain.
