1968 trunk won't open

[jimmyfo]

The trunk of my 68 4 door t bird won't open. I should have joined the forum before drilling out the lock with no luck. Is there anyway to get in the trunk other than taking out the back seat?

Well, if you have already drilled out the lock and you can't turn it then Time for round 2. Drill deeper. You need a 1/2" bit. You need to get all the way through the lock. Keep in mind there's a flat rod coming out of the back of the lock. You're going to have to fish that out with a magnet. Then use a long screwdriver to open it.
