Re: 1955-56 Trunk lid hinge problem

I had this same thing happen to me on my '56 Clipper last summer. I ordered a replacement hinge, and my son and daughter helped me replace it. The paint color of the hinge does not match the car, but I'm not too worried about that. Replacing the hinge is easy; it is a little tricky get the lid to line up with the trunk. If you have the service manual, then there are instructions in there showing you how to do this. Good luck!
