[Tigers] Correct trunk hinge fasteners

[James Lindner]

Just to confuse the matter more…there is a supposedly all-original survivor for sale on eBay. In the photo of the trunk it shows the hinge screws as NOT painted…but the studs are painted.

I know the claim of all original could be suspect, but thought it was worth sharing.
