Re: My 59 Bug

I've ordered a new matching wheel for a spare, 3 point seat belts for the front, (already have rear belts installed), and a pair of good door latches, My passenger one has an issue when its locked..It will open on the outside once then it won't work at all then.. I also need to replace the drivers door handle that has the key made into it. Then every panel will open and close and lock properly. It doesn't sound like a big thing but it is time consuming to get everything working right. I think my drivers side sill plate is kicking the bottom of the door out. I'll address that next. I already replaced the screws that hold it down on the passenger side and the door works better now. I can see where the wrong screws were installed and they have been chewing away at the metal on the bottom of the door. Somebody clearly didn't do something right there.
