Posted - 04/11/2023 : 14:08:35 On my yellow '57 Bel Air convertible, there are also two partially hidden screws located under (actually above) the exhaust pipes, just ahead of the rear axle. These are difficult to see at first. That will require removing those pipes for access to the screws.. I am not sure on this car, but sometimes there are hidden screws above the mufflers. These screws sometimes also serve to hold the front seat in place. Not sure if this car has that. Sorry, I do not have the non-opening trunk version here, but I don't think the mounting hardawrer would be different. Hope that helps!
