IML: Electric Trunk Release

["Eric" <gearhead@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Haley,
For more info on trunk releases for 1963, I found this link in the parts 
catalog. I think Chrysler went back and forth between electric and vacuum 
releases depending on year and division. Just one more piece of fascinating 
trivia.

They were vaccume in 67 and 68 I know for sure, because both of my
cars have them? Does anyone else have a vaccume trunk release  in
their car?
