Trunk not closing on 69' Judge
hi, friends, I'm back ..
I'm certain at one point this trunk closed perfectly .. today I was installing lock cylinder when I noticed that locking mechanism on trunk lid was misaligned w/ catch inside of trunk .. like "clunk" .. trunk lid assembly not even getting close to point where it'd normally latch.
I removed catch from inside of trunk and quickly realized that trunk literally won't fully close.
gap at back window (pictured) seems square but there's a larger gap on passenger side of trunk between it and quarter panel than driver's side.
there's not anything in the way of it closing , it seems like maybe hinges themselves can't collapse any further.
car has been flat bedded a few times since leaving it's previous home of 20+ years and arriving here. did something get twisted?
thoughts would be appreciated
best,
mike
