Can a lock for a right side door be added to the left door of a mid year 1949 truck? I realize that the cover would be upside down, but having a driver door lock would be great. Will the handle mechanism accomodate the lock tab? Does the lock cylinder come out readily so that a locksmith can provide locks keyed alike? Thanks, newbie Windy in Kansas
It's _NOT_ going to happen ~ sorry . The design of the latch assembly itself precludes maiing this modification . It's an old truck , this is how it goes . -Nate
Thanks Nate for letting me know. I hadn't examined any door mechanism to see if it was possible. I'll NOT order an extra lock in. I suppose that I could toy with the electric lock Idea. Nope, probably not. I like the K.I.S.S. rule too much.
