Good morning all!
Does anybody here know of a treatise on rumble lid assembly? I need some guidance. I have installed my (probably) original hinges onto my reproduction (new) rumble lid and am struggling with getting the hinge install. The lid fits the body opening but the hinges are about an inch and a half away from the brackets.
This is a 68C so all things are attached to a wooden subframe and attachment space is an issue.
I need to tap into some experience on the install for this one. Thanks in advance.
