[DeTomaso] Need new deck lid

[Ken Green]

 I have a flat deck 72, VIN 2324, it also had the single rear ZF mount.  The early decks (no rib?) are also a little different from the later decks.

   With the price of a good used steel decklid today and the difficulties
  in metalworking a damaged one enough to be acceptable, you're better
  off looking for a lightweight fiberglas or carbon-fiber aftermarket
  lid, at maybe half the price. Note that of the OEM steel ones, there
  are ribbed units on '72-'75 cars and flat decklids on '71s. If you
  aren't picky, there are a few so-called 'cut decklids' that show up
  where misguided owners trimmed their OEM units to fit around Weber
  carburetors instead of finding a fiberglas one to chop up. Cut-lid
  prices vary a LOT when you can find them since many don't want
  less-than-perfect body parts on their cars.
    Good luck- J DeRyke
