Opening the trunk on a 74 duster

Hey, I have an issue with my trunk because there is no locking mechanism on my trunk there is just a whole where it use to be and I do not know how to get my trunk open any ideas?

look inside the hole for a slot that looks like a flat screwdriver would fit. put a screwdriver in the slot and turn it. ta-da! it's open!

Ok, I have looked in there and I can't see anything and i've put a screwdriver to see if it would hit anything and there was nothing

Can you fit your finger in there and feel around, the mechanism could have slid.

I assume you have not used a flashlight, as I would think you would see something if it is 4" inside the trunk.

I was picturing the wrong type, so that's why I was slightly confused, but that should help.
