Broken trunk lock with pics

So I have a 1989 Iroc I bought last year as a project. It came with loads of issues and I've been fixing them one by one. I will need this forums help on this one.

The guy I bought it from said it sat in his front yard for years (since 2001). While it was there someone broke into it and stole the radiator. The lock on the trunk was the entry point. They cut the hoses and lost most of the screws to the piece that holds it in place.

How Should I go about fixing this?

I should also note the rear latch release switch\motor does not work.
