I have a better pic than this of the rear trunk latch somewhere, but I'll have to find it. But you can first of all see the wavy cross member at the rear. And if you look at the latch assembly, there's a black blotch of rust-proofing paint right where it meets the crossmember. That blotch is hiding a split where the latch folded down and was then bent back in place. BTW, this is how the rear trunk looked in April. The new seller definitely re-painted it. And the inside of the front trunk has been painted as well, because all the little paint chips are gone. Any claim of original paint is bogus as far as I'm concerned.
BTW, look at the difference in color between the headlight cover and the fender. Then take a look at the new seller's photos, and you'll see that that area is cropped out of every shot of the front trunk.
