Help needed with 1930 Model A deck lid.

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Coupe_of_Frankfurt, Dec 21, 2010.

  1. Does anyone have good pictures of an original 5Win Coupe trunk?
    I have the hood and the frame but no idea of their connection.
    There are many self-made solutions but I've never seen the stock hinges of a 1930 Coupe (not rumble seat).

    I'd be thankful for any enlightening picture.

    Have a good Christmas season everybody!

  2. I think it is just has pins that ride in holes in the quarter.
     
  3. Thanks, I know the pins and quarters but any kind of connecting hinge joint is missing.
    I didn't assume that this is all...

    Is it?

    We're working on quite similar projects! Have fun..
     
  4. No hinges just pins

    Look at Mac's catalog.
    www.macsautoparts.com

    Trunk Lid Hinge & Mounting Set - 22 Pieces - USA Made - Top Quality
    Year Part Number Required Number Unit Of Measure
    1928-1931 A41512STQ 1 SET


    This set allows the trunk lid to pivot at the top of the trunk area. For both sides. Heavy duty steel, not cast iron.
     
  6. Pins, I made mine from bolts with the threads turned down back to the head and left about 4 or 5 threads to thread into the piece in the body, I think the overall length was about 1". Snyders Model A have them also along with the body pieces..

    Yup...pins it is...I re-attached mine using the original-style hardware from Mac's. The plates they sell than the pins thread into were crap though, so I cleaned up the originals and re-used them.

    I think these guys have it covered, but FWIW, "all" Model A coupes are 5 windowed.
