WANTED: 1968 M-M rear load door latch assembly.

Jeremy D. Ledford

PCS Volunteer Chapter President
Wanted: Rear load door latch assembly for a 1968 Miller-Meteor coach. Can be from a hearse, ambulance, combination or flower car door. Needs to be in usable condition. Needs to be from a right hand hinged door. Needed for restoration project that I'm assisting on. Have tried a 71-76 M-M latch assembly and one of those will not work. Please check your parts cars and parts stashes and advise me on availability and cost. My email is j78ledford@juno.com. THANKS!
 
Jeremy, Is this the style of door you are working with? I'm sure you need the internal photos but car is in carport where I can't quite get panel off right now. If this is the correct door I will get car out and get internal photos as soon as possible.

Thanks Rich!!! That give me (hopefully others) an idea what to look for. Don't do interior door shots if it gonna be any trouble though! THANKS!!!
 
a word of warning here that rear door handle is MM and rear only. I'm sure 68-69-70 are the same and it may go back to 66 but they did a big body change in 71. now I'm going to tell you I have never see one of these bad or at least that can't be easily repaired there is not a lot to them. clean with a little solvent and re lub is about all I have ever done on any car or truck. here is a 69 my fingers are on the trip were the handle plunger rest in the second picture
