[RAYGEDDESPROTO751]

Hi,
Need help finding a few things. My rain gutter trim on the right side is needing a better quality. Anyone have one for sale. Also does anyone have pictures of the trunk torsion bars on the 67. One turn up missing. Trying to find watch one I need. Don't know if bend the same or shape is different.

Fastbacks only had one rod to hold the trunk up when open

So that there is no confusion the steel innerstructure trunklid typically had the center bracket like seen in Jeff's pictures of a steel innerstructure trunklid to hold the bar. The all fiberglass version did not.

Also be advised tht jack instructions were typically put on floor or trap door depending on SA production date because they were added at Ford. Trunklid was added at SA.

And, by no longer having the support in the middle of the fiberglass trunk lid the end of the rod (actually a torsion bar) no longer follows a completely straight (vertical) line.
This forces the rod end to walk back and forth sometimes popping the fingered retainer nut off. And the accompanying noise ...

The vast majority of fiberglass trunklid cars do not have a problem or at least not one bad enough to alleviate . Some owners install the bracket into the fiberglass trunklid anyway. Sometimes it will hold and sometimes it will hold for a while then come loose.
