Default Offset Hinges

I am building a Top Flight Giant Scale P-51D and am about to fit tail wheel doors. The problem I have is that I need offset hinges to allow the doors to open freely without contacting the fuselage. If I put standard hinges in, I will have to leave a gap between the closed doors and the body - not very scale like. Does anyone know where I can get some offset hinges?? I have spoken to the hobby shops nearby in Sydney and Newcastle (Australia), but no-one seems to carry such accessories. I remember seeing an advertisement for such hinges while I was living in the States (97-00), but can't remember the store's name. Anyone able to help??

Thanks
