    Trunk Lid Hinges

    Is there a trick to remounting the trunk lid and top compartment lid on a 1961? Does the spring tension need to completely released?

    Thanks for any help!

    Ray,
    There is no reason to release any of the spring pressure from either set of springs. simply bolt the lids on and rock and roll! The hinges are however, interlocked so that both the decklid and the trunk lid can't be raised at the same time, as they would collide. Install one of the lids, close it, and install the other lid.

    Regards, John McGraw
