Hello,
I Have a 1949 model 62 Sedanette that my grandmother bought in 1957.
The drivers door key lock has never worked.
I have the drivers door latch out and found the typical issue with the pot metal tab broken off.
I am looking for a good used latch or somebody that can restore/replace the tab on mine.
Thank you!!

Tab "C" is the pot metal piece that breaks.
Somebody must be replacing/restoring this part on the latch.
