    Hi,

    i know it is a stupid question.
    but,i put the trunk lid on my 67,and on the drivers side ,the trunk lid sits higher. like the hinge isn't pulling it all the way down.

    Deck lid: The trunk lid is pretty much like the hood but the hinges dont move at all on the body (usually). So shimming and twisting are a few of your only options beyond the movement in the slotted holes on the hinge. Bending the hinge or pushing up or down on the sides of the quarters, front or rear panel are the others. These should be done ONLY after all other things are tried.

    This is an exerpt from the "Basics of Basics" to aligning panels. The complete instructions can be found in the hood alignment section of the "Basics" found at Team Camaro (click here)
