    I am putting the trunk back into use from when a previous owner converted it to a rumble seat. I think something is missing. It doesn't look like I have all the pieces to the trunk inside where the latch locks. Am I missing something?

    It looks more like a trough than a panel..I got my last one from Howells..
    It is necessary as its formed to take the trunk latch plate..to hold deck lid shut

    I thought as much. ****, more stuff to buy. Do the repros actually fit well?

    Thanks, Danny. I think I will probably use them, I have had pretty good luck with their patch panels on my pickup truck.
    As you can see, I have already started doing some repairs on it.

    I have a repop piece that my Dad got years ago . I had it bolted in my Roadster and it fit well considering it is a repop.I found the original so I put it back in. I will make a deal on it for a fellow 32 Owner if it helps . It's not doing me any good :)

    Mike, I sent you a PM about the panel.
