rockitdoc Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 What's the ticket for sealing the interface between the trunk hinges and the rear deck/trunk lid surface? I've looked around at the various car parts places and Ace hardware and only find rubber/cellulose and rubber/fiber composites thin enough. These seem too rigid to do the job. Maybe there's actually a Lincoln part that goes here? Car is a '41 LC Coupe, but this application is probably common to lots of models.Thanks, in advance.S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Murphy Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Scott, Metro Moulded Parts makes the rubber gasket pads for your trunk hardware. I "Googled" metro moulded parts, select the first selection when their web site pops up and then select "search for parts." Enter year, make, and "continental." Scroll down to MP 817. They also have a few more parts you ming need also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mssr. Bwatoe Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 these were cleverly installed to isolate the trunk door "electrically" from the body, grommits on all hinges, fiber wafers on all hardware, and a good gasket on the door, so that the car could use it for an antenna...only if you opted for the long distance Ariel did you get the cowl version that pulls up...

Mine has the telescoping version on the cowl. I wonder which one works best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beltfed Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 AM radio transmissions (commercial) are sent via a vertically polarized antenna. Propagation is in a 360 pattern to reach as many listeners as possible. Due to the long wavelength the whole vertical transmission mast is polarized usually. Receiving antenna should also be orientated in the vertical position for best reception (strongest signal strength). This is not cast in stone as there are many other types of antenna arrays for transmissions depending on what the user is trying to accomplish.
