Default 1965 doors bugging me with creaking noise. Solutions?

do I need new hinges or would WD-40 do the trick? They both have a really obnoxious creak whenever I open them...

They don't cost much 5 or 10 dollars.U should be able to get them at your local hardware store[autozone,orielly,advance]or what u have in your area.I bought some for a 77 cobra 2 and it solve my problem.Time consuming though,i had to cut the old ones out.

Well some years u might be able to hammer them out using a punch,but the 77 i had to cut them out.See i took off the doors off the hinges and then cut the pins out the hinges with a grinder.U could buy new hinges but there going to cost u.Maybe 100 dollars or more.When i cut them i was extremely carefull doing this so i didnt damage anything on my car but the old pins.That's why i said time consuming because it took me all day to do it.
