 OK. 2 1/2 years ago I took the trunk hinges and rods off the car. What a surprise, NOW I CAN'T FIND ONE OF THE RODS       Does anybody know where I can get some new or used ones. I looked in NPD's catalog and didn't see them there?

 Wow, talk about timing!  Go to ebay and check out Item # 2420364554 .  He has what you need - good luck, happy bidding, yadda, yadda, yadda.

 Whoops, looks like you have a FB maybe?  These won't work then.  I will check my 66' FB tomorrow, was thinking they only had 1 rod for the trunk lid, but may be wrong.....

 Yes, just the one rod for the FB's, so if this is what you have, then you're in good shape.  It is amazing what you'll lose though when a car gets torn down for a period of time.............
