You might try Carol @ Grossmuellers, or Mary Jo (vettgal). Paragon might have one in the yard also.

The only one you are going to find is a used one.

I think a friend of mine, in upstate NY, might have a good used one. I'll PM you his number.

Well that's surprising. Seems like only yesterday (probably 10 yrs ago!) I bought one from Corvette Central. A shame nobody reproduces it anymore.

Corvette Image in Oregon shows that part in their catalog. Look in the 61-62 rear body page, Item 15, pt #6162TLS1P

Very interesting, or how can that be?! Does your trunk lid also have the spring pad on the left side? Maybe your car was a European export right hand drive model that also had the trunk latch reversed?

the underside of the trunk lid looks just like your picture.
