yep, those older cars used pneumatics to raise ans lower the covers. There might be a broken hose going to them ans since it is that old the cylinder might have gone bad as well. You should be able to move the cover slightly by hand to see if it is holding pressure.

Dodge Charger?
Vacuum actuated. Probably broken hose to vacuum motor, or switch.
