How do you manually raise-lower 1964 Thunderbird Convertible?

Answer 1

Not easily. Depends on where in the cycle you are. It trunk is open, you can disconnect cylinders from top and that will allow the top to be raised manually, but if the rest of the system is working, it will not be now because switches are now out of sequence. To open locked trunk lid, you have to undo locks by unbolting them above and to the front of each rear wheel. This will allow you to open trunk a few inches. This is a HEAVY bunch of parts that will break an arm if not careful.
