Whistler Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 My roadster rumble seat lid is missing the latch (keeper) attached to the car body. Does anyone know of a source for the latch or photo/drawing/description? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whistler Posted July 24, 2022 Author Share Posted July 24, 2022 I do have a photo. Having trouble moving from computer to phone and can’t get online with the computer. meanwhile, I’m looking for brackets and rack for rear mounted trunk.Any suggestions?

leomara Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Hi Whistler, no, Jay has been sole source for much of what I needed. I was able to procure some additional items from owners of similar cars. I suggest you find other 1930 owners and they may have something or know where to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whistler Posted July 25, 2022 Author Share Posted July 25, 2022 Two photos of one of the lug nut. I need one right-hand. Again. does anyone have a suggestion regarding the bracket and rack for mounting a rear trunk. If I had a few good photos, I could make the bracket, which I am told is the most difficult to find.

Whistler Posted July 27, 2022 Author Share Posted July 27, 2022 I’ve found many good parts at Jay’s garage. he doesn’t have the trunk mounting brackets I need, although he does have a couple of racks. if I had a photo or drawing of the brackets I’d make them myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the height of each that is different and may impede a tight fit if you mis-match. Yours looks like my center one, but I cannot see the top.

ckowner Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I have a 1930 DeSoto CK coupe with a trunk rack. If you PM me a private message, I can send you pictures with some detail. I copied mine from pictures and then kept working the measurements till they worked. I believe the 30 Chrysler and DeSoto had the same setup, as they shared body parts as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
