32 Outlaw Body

Can anybody tell me what rear deck lid latch works best on a 32 outlaw coupe body?

 

I would start with the manufacturer.

The small aftermarket Bear Claw style works great.

I've seen them in fibergl*** roadsters and am using one in my Brookville 31 A roadster.

Fairly easy install and there are a couple of tricks.


You can find smaller Bear Claws at the junkyard.

I've seen some good candidates on Explorers, mini-vans and Expeditions.
They usually have an electric release which is a nice touch and easy to set up.

Later Ford p***enger cars have them as well.

There's a fairly good variety so looking at just about any brand late model SUV and p***enger car should get one you can use.

 

Early VW works great, has a cable release.
Whole set up, (male and female parts and cable) less the $35

 

thanks for the info!
