Hi plymouth34, I would suggest looking through this list of Salvage Yards which can be found here: [url]http://www.oldride.com/directory/junkyard.html[/url] Its getting harder and harder to find yards which have 30's and 40's iron but they may know of additional resources. If all else fails you may be able to have someone fabricate a new deck lid from either fiberglass or metal. Good Luck!
