Vacuum Trunk Release


Did the 1962 Olds 98 ever come out with a vacuum trunk release as an option. I have the latch mechanism mounted in the trunk that works when you suck on the hose. I also have a vacuum reservoir mounted on the firewall. But I do not have and lever( Switch ) Mounted in the glove box. The only part that I do have is a "T" handle that is marked Trunk Release. I have searched the internet and it looks like the "T" handle is off a Lincoln.

The one in my car may have come off a later car.

Would anyone have a photo of the switch/actuator that goes in glove box.

I will post some photos when I can work out how to load photos from scanner
