Why don't you use the trunklid thats a little wider? It should be perfect then once you canoe it. MOst people use hoods if they are allowed and thats alot ouf beating to get to fit . On my 81 mark body I wanna u the trunk lid down in side the the trunk what my question is I've been told its a bitch casuse of the round section in trunk lid so I tryed a square vic style lid but she's a lil to wide to sit inside where the lid would normally sit was wondering if 80's trunk lid would work or would sit in between the fenders like normal ..this is my first new style trunk or doing the u style trunk any help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Was just wondering what most people have done with these mark body's I know there not near as common just didn't know if people used organial lid or swapped them over ..when I put Vic lid on it was only like inch away from going over finder lips so guess that was my question

If you are allowed, weld some straps across the rear pillars. the harder the trunk on those "5th window" vics the easier they belly IMO. Almost every one I've seen run bend really funny around the rear pillars.

Nice work truck333. What do you use a hood instead of a trunk lid? Any chance you have some pics during the process? By the way the rears of your cars look in your after pics I guess your able to convert to leaf springs?

now what does taking the speaker deck out do? I have never run a vic and im not this year either but why wouldn't you just bring it down and leave the speaker deck?

only time you leave the speaker deck in.. is when the rules dont permit cutting it out... look closely at the pic, you'll see why

It lets you weld the trunk lid directly to the floor
