Does anyone have a source for the sprung metal piece that locks the coupe door latch?

John,
The 26-27 coupe door is the same as the 28-29 model A pick-up door. Check out the Snyders catalog for model A parts for your best chance of finding what you need.

Thanks Jeff but the part I need is not included in the rebuild kit. It's a flat piece of sprung steel that's riveted to the cover. I'll try to upload a pic of a latch that is also missing that piece.

John,
I just checked the Snyders Antique Auto Parts and found them, this is the part number A-80055-RK

Thanks Jeff. I must have missed that. I'll check that out. I really appreciate it. Thanks again.

Just checked and the piece I need isn't included in the kit. I have that kit but this is a flat piece of sprung steel that rivets to the cover and locks the drivers door.I'm trying to figure out what I could use to replace it.

John,
How thick is the piece you need? Probably a section of old bandsaw blade would be the correct material if it is the right size. It could be annealed, formed, drilled and re-tempered as needed.

Good idea. I'll try that although I don't know the correct thickness. Thanks Jim.

I used some spring steel from a juki tack sewing machine lk model front cover ill see if i have a pic and more stock

Lets see if it takes here pics

John look at the bottom pic. the one on the left just as handle goes out top there is a cut and bend inward that makes the stop not like the one on right [wating for rebuild]The springs all brake at the rivit hole, in my case i just aded the spring [as you can see with a rivit] it is somewhat of an anty ratler
With the cut, the spring isint realy needed

Thanks Lorenzo. I'll try and find that and see how it goes. Without that spring the door won't lock. Thanks again.

Lorenzo,do you have a part # and a place to buy those juki springs? Thanks for all your help.
