As I bought this truck as a basket case, I didn't know how poorly the original worn out door latches worked. After reading about the "quality" of the available repop replacement parts I purchased a pair of Altman latches. They work perfectly, other than the fact that you can only lock the passenger door. A pair of 1942-1948 Chevy car (keyed alike) door locks, a template taken from the passenger side and some drilling, cutting and filing and now I have functional locks on both sides. The amount of time that I spent on making the doors latch, lock and the windows roll up and down properly seemed like an eternity, but it's done now and I hope that I won't have to reach into the doors again for a while.
