Anyone have a photo of the wood in the rumble seat lid? I can't figure out how to post a picture so here is what I have: When the upholstery guy stripped everything out of my car he found no springs in the rumble seat lid (just foam with vinyl covering---I now have a set of springs from Snyder's). There are three horizontal wooden "slats" running across the upper portion of the lid. The slats are 3 inches wide and 3/8 inches thick. The upholstery guy says he thinks they were added to provide support for the foam and should be removed now that we have a spring set. I can see where the springs would fit better if the slats were gone, but wanted to check here first. Thanks. Tom

I can take a picture of a 31 lid cushion that is out of a Fisher Body Cabriolet with a metal reinforced lid. If you want some let me know.

Dave, I'd like some pics as I understand that my 32'olds is the same as the 32' Chevy Cabriolet. My lid wood and cushion is missing.
Thanks, Ted
