64 Trunk lock question

**gbic1** · 06-27-2009, 02:48 PM

Starting to put my car back together, I did not take this car apart. I have striped two parts cars and none had a functioning trunk lock. I order a assembly book yesterday but that dont help me today. I have new bezel and new lock cylinder but every thing else is missing. What do I need?

Dang I forgot! But I had a complete lock assy a few weeks ago...

Ask Shotrod, she'll look at hers. but you do need the little link, a clip and something else...

Does this help?

Yes that helps. I guess I need more parts. How can you strip three cars and have no parts? I think they also sold me wrong lock cylinder.

Dug back through the parts car and found rod and lever. Ebay purchase for trunk lock is wrong. I think they sent ne on for wagon.

Gbic1 The trunk lock cylinder on the 64 is not like any other galaxie and 3 years ago when I was looking for mine you could not buy one from an aftermarket manufacture. I paid high dollar for a new old stock cylinder with 2 keys. off e bay and I've seen some go for $200 I hope someone started making them and maybe some one can help you find one. PM me if you can't find one I know a guy over here that want's $150 for one with the key I told him he was crazy but I know that he still has it.

They do finally repop the trunk lock bezel but not sure on the cylinder part. Just saw them in Dearborn catalog I think it was. Bout time!

Yes they do the bezel but not the cylinder and the one from 60,61,62,63 doesn't fit so don't be fooled. Mine was drilled out which is what happens when it goes to a junk yard and the people there want to see what is in the trunk.

I sent an email to dearborn about their trunk lock that they have listed that is suppose to fit 60,61,62,63,64 and I asked if they would check on the 64 trunk lock because I heard that they were different here is their reply.

The 60-63 Galaxie should be the same. Our catalog lists them as working for a 64 but, according to the Ford books they are not the same. You can try Green Sales to see if they have them in stock . 513-731-3304
