door latch for 1926 model t fordor

[bnchief]

i am looking for a door latch for the front passenger door on a 1926 fordor which means it lock with a key i already got one but i would like to have a spare to refurbish. just message me so we can talk.

There were 2 different, not interchangeable, styles of these door latches depending on who made the body.
There is the more common style with the notched corner and inserted nuts in the plate.
The other style has square corners all around and countersunk holes for all mounting holes.

If we knew what you had / needed it would help get you the correct one.
Maybe pictures would help?

Mike i have the one with the square corners all around and countersunk mounting holes

[Mike Silbert]

Good luck finding those, they can be hard to find.
Hopefully someone out there has one for you.

Thanks mike i may just have to modify one of the existing ones the vendors sell

Mike I sent Steve the one I got in our latch trade since I didn't need the passenger side haha small world

That makes me happy, its about helping each other and putting more cars back on the road.
History is best taught with real live physical examples.
Plus they are just fun.

I was going to offer an extra I got in the trade but he needs the style you got.
