installed new trunk lock

Post by price9714 »

I just installed a new trunk lock on my 66. It was moving great and the lever appeared to be working fine .So I closed the trunk lid and now the lever will not engage and open the lid. I have heard there is a way to get into the trunk area without too much damage to the body. I am at a lost. HELP

I believe you remove the lh headlamps and the bucket behind that. Then you can reach around inside and unbolt the latch. At least that's what I have read.
