    Changing my Model A from rumble seat to trunk, need a picture or two of the hinge area and any tips on locating the hinge on the body. Think I’ve got the lid part figured. I assume the stops for the rumble seat need removed ?

    I’m starting that soon. I’m sure more knowledgeable folks will post but here’s what I know. There are small plates that cover the hinge mount on either side of the opening, up towards the mounts for the bumpers. There is a sheet metal piece that is mounted on the top of the panel below the lid. It has the bumpers for the trunk lid. Hope that is a start, hoping others will contribute to help us learn.:)
