Title: trap door bracket
Post by: kasearch@ix.netcom.com on January 23, 2023, 09:27:14 AM
On the BRACKET, for the fold down trap door spring handle, what color or plating should it, and the hardware have?

Latch, handle and hardware were typically a zinc silver.

Thanks Bob, but I am looking for the bracket that mounts on the trunk hinge support that the wire handle rest in with the trap door open.

Sorry for the confusion in our responses. Likely due to the fact that you did not state what year car you were asking about and when it was finished at Dearborn (in your case)  Nor did we ask


Removing my earlier post

For your answer P& O (phosphate and oil)
