65 Dart Wagon Conversion to a Sedan Delivery
Decided to take a break from metal and/or bodywork on the 65. I have 3 driver’s door latches that all have some issues, 2 more major than the third. So I took it and gave it a bath in Evaporust yesterday. The only real issue it had was the the bracket with the rod from the inside door was pretty well frozen - maybe rust between the retaining spring, the bracket and the latch itself? If rust hopefully the evaporust will take care of it. Today it looks like brand new except that bracket is still hard to move. 4 or 5 minutes of working with it back and forth, a little spray grease and it’s like new. Now to give the passenger side a bath too! You can see the referenced latch bracket as it wasn’t completely covered by the Evaporust as it was still pretty stuck at bath time!
