Trunk dimples are for the requisite fitting of a suitcase to pass period FIA requirements. Story is that they had to fit the suitcase in the trunk to pass inspection, so the crew put the suitcase in the trunk and slammed it shut, creating the dimples and passing inspection. 289FIA's have these dimples. I have them on my ERA, but they are optional.

Wow! Even has the leaf-spring suspension like the originals. The rear fender flare looks a bit odd to me---it has a bit of a crease wherein my ERA FIA has a smooth flare.

Looks great. DD

Uh oh.
The SPF vs ERA debate has pretty good future, here.

Question. What are the two raised & flat areas on the deck lid ?
Is this what they are ?
