    Does any one have a pic or an exploded view of the trunk latch of a 53/54 chevy 150/210, mine dosent work, Im guessing its missing some parts, there seems to be a pin running thru the finger/latch and into both side of the housing, but mines missing, also was there a spring to return the finger/latch after you remove the key?

    Thanks, MrC.

    Thanks Tin Can, I was able to find a junk trunk lid and grab the latch., cleaned it up and installed it work perfect. As for what I was missing, alot... the coiled spring and the piviot shaft were gone no wonder it didnt work.

    Thanks again MrC.
