[DeTomaso] Deck Lid Latch Catch FINISHED

[Mark McWhinney]

Michael,,

250 lbs is a little over 4 cubic feet.  Even if we ran you through a
blender, you would barely fit into the insert.  Just take the insert out and
sit on the ZF.  It can take the weight (don't ask).

I wonder if anyone has gotten trapped in the engine bay.

Mark

Thanks to all who helped with kind suggestions, measurements, etc.

I developed a new way to do this based on one very simple statement from
Mike Drew about crawling inside the trunk and marking the deck lid, I'm 250
lbs and won't be crawling into the fiberglass insert anytime soon.

So I figured out another way and think that it might be the definitive
method to do this and takes into account that all the cars are different and
that no two measurements will likely ever be the same.

Check it out and let me know what you think
