    For the new springs, no core is needed.

    Just as well, he is missing the springs and is just left with the hinges which he aware are worn and will need rebuilt/welded filler.

    I think you misunderstood. In order for Jack to send out rebuilt hinges he insists on getting the springs with the core, before he sends out the replacement. That's the only way he can keep the cycle going.

    I think you may have misunderstood Holger ...he purely means in order to get new springs made in Germany Andy does not need an old spring as core to copy since Holger already has had them made before (hence the manufacture already has all the details on file). Jack and hinge/spring needs is a whole other issue (good thing he has a stock of parts cars as he's helped me out a few times with impossible to find bits).
