Some hack jobs are almost genius!
Finally got around to taking apart the rear of this 86 so I can stand i awe of more rust and found this. Oddly enough the lock on the hatch works perfectly and one of the only things on this car that does haha pretty sure this is not factory. Any idea what these screws are replacing?

Yep, the moving portion is only anchored to the fixed part by the threaded rod on the motor, and the plastic housing of the motor. The plastic gets brittle with age, and retards think they have to slam the hatch with Hulk hands, which shatters the plastic housing around the three screws that hold it together. Then the moving part just falls out. The screws are someone's fix to jam the moving portion in place.
