Hey guys,

Might seem like a stupid question, but does anyone know how to unlock the rear suicide doors? Both of them seem to be locked, even the inside handle wont open the doors. Seems like it may be something simple but I couldnt find anything.

Thanks guys,
S
 
Sounds like the mechanism is stuck (rusted) inside the door. You should be able to unlock and open the door (s) by pushing down on the interior door handle (that is how they work in our '39 CS). If there is no movement, you should remove the garnish around the windows, door and window handles and pull the door panel off to get a look at what the problem might be.

There is movement, I can hear a mechanism moving, but stops before it feels like it catches anything. Much like todays child locks. Same thing for both sides. Maybe it'll just take taking it apart to figure it all out.
