We have adapted our popular electric trunk latch kits to more vehicles. This kit fits 1964-65 Chevelle/Malibu and 1966-67 Nova/Chevy II.
Some metal trimming is required to make the latch fit into these cars. This kit includes everything that is needed except the tools to install it. The catch that is included in this kit is not available as a reproduction item. Therefore a factory latch is used. Since these are factory items that have been discontinued and are not available as a reproduction item these kits will also be limited to supply.
We throughly inspect each catch before it is machined and then we have it zinc plated. We supply a template to show where the trunk lid needs to be trimmed.
The part number for this vehicle is MI 810 the price for this kit is $179.
Limited supply available.
