Default Does anyone make these?

Its for my 70 convertible. Seems to be called "decklid guide". It bolts to the inner rear fender and the convertible deck lid pins fit into the hole (there's a plastic bushing goes inside of the hole) when the deck lid is closed. My passanger side one is missing and i cant seem to find anyone reproducing these things.

You may have to get a salvaged part from a scrapped vehicle. Google "Salvaged Corvette Parts" to identify possible sources.

Hello B

The part number for the pasenger side is 3995064. Driver's side is 3995063. AIM calls it a "housing" Good luck in your search.

thx for all the suggestions. The great news is i actually found the part in 1 of the 10 boxes of random stuff that came with the car when i purchased it. Lesson learned....check all those boxes of stuff in your basement before you go buying parts.
