Sorry, I thought you were just kidding when you posted those pictures in my thread about the trunk replacement.

Rob, your pictures was a pretty good see-thruu illustration, of the box brace area, not kidding.

I just started the trunk work at my -62.
I just cant figure out how the parts come together in this area, at my car, its been replaced the wrong way, or gone.

I add a illustration of what i thought could be a horisontal cut thru the middle of the box brace.
Im sorry for the thin text, i havent figure out how how to make it thicker yet.

Anybody PLEACE tell us whats wrong, if not original design.

I just cant figure out.

Svenne
