Shop Manual Supplement P5 fig 6 1952. My door lock is in good shape, but the old spring broke. I looked at Chevy Duty, Lmc, Jim Carter & American Classic. Thanks, Kelly 53 3100 http://www.cravy.com/53-3100/LadyAfterRats.jpg | | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | I have two old handles for you with decent springs if you want them.

The Filling Station has lots of great hard to find stuff but not the spring I need only the whole $40.00 latch.
I may have to try and make one I have the two broke parts, but with two coils on one spring & fitting ect It would be nice to buy a new one for about 5 bucks.

Good luck, Jeff | | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | You can take the springs out of the donor handles to use in yours and toss the remains but that is just a suggestion. If you want them, send me a PM. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 42 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 42 | Thanks Houston54 that will work.
I sent you a PM

I went to your site & looked at your latch project. That spring you reused is the one I need.
Just my my luck, but thanks for offering to help.
