Gents I need to know if the trunk lid on a 1986 and 1987 Tudor MGM is the same lid as that on the four door models?
Do not want to sound like an A hole when I begin to call salvage places around the country.
Thanks;-)

Trunk lid should be the same ‘79-‘87, regardless if 2 or 4 door. Only differences is usually the badging changed a minute amount over those years.

-1997 Grand Marquis LS (230K Miles) - The Daily Workhorse & March 2015 + January 2019 POTM Winner
My crash book shows 79-89 as interchangable, which doesn't make sense. 88-91 should be on their own. What is the major difference between 79-87 and 88-91? Can a 88-91 be made to fit earlier cars? WagonMan

Looks like it would work. I know the trunk lock would badge on the newer lid would have to be retained, but thats easy to live with.

Thanks gents, I just do not want to sound stupid when I am asked questions by salvage yards I am starting to call.
Its amazing how the lid has rusted, even though the car was Z-barted when new.......I mean both door bottoms are rotted out, and the pass side A pillar is full of cancer......all the result of salt on the roads here in NYC during the winters. I will continue my search next week.
If 2 and 4 door models are the same, then my quest will be easier.
