Thanks all. When I get a chance, I'll take some pictures, post it, and see what happens.

I've been fighting cooling issues on my '30 A. I took a thermal shot of the radiator and it was immediately apparent why. Uneven flow and partial blockage. I did some back flushing with made up adapters and a garden hose. It improved, but still wasn't right. I suspect it could be saved with...

To make it more interesting, it turns out this latch is NOT a mirror image of the one on the other side. Since it has the key lock below the handle and the others have the inside locking lever, the latches are different. So I'm dealing with a latch that may have only been used in one door of a...

I get that. I was just hoping someone had a picture of what it was supposed to look like so I didn't have to take the other door apart to see. The other side won't be an exact mirror image because this one has the key lock (separate from the handle) but I suspect the actuator part is the same.

BTW, this is a "Swiss" latch

I could weld a piece onto the little actuating arm to fill the gap, but it seems like it's almost 1/4". Seems unlikely that it's that worn, which is why I was looking for a picture of what it's supposed to look like.

I don't want to take the other doors apart to see if there is a gap, but I'm pretty sure there isn't because the latch starts to move as soon as you move the handle from horizontal. On this one, the handle moves maybe 30 degrees down from horizontal before the latch starts to move. Yes, the...

The front passenger door latch on m '30 Briggs Town Sedan was sticky and droopy. I took it apart and cleaned and lubricated it, which took care of "sticky", but I still have "droopy." If the handle is horizontal, there is a gap in the actuating mechanism (first pic). The handle naturally...
