Default Re: Trunk Lid won't open

I’ve been working on a ‘46 coupe that had the keys stolen.
I had to take the back seat out.
When you do that be careful that you don’t poke a hole in the upholstery above the rear backrest.
Getting the spare wheel out of the way was not fun.
When you go into the trunk take a light, abig flt screwdriver and a hammer with you.
Have another person with you when you go in.
There is a big nut and washer holding the handle in.
After you push the handle out your helper can open the trunk with a large screwdriver or a square file handle.
