Parts request:
I'm missing one each of my window latches and
screen retainers. Does anyone have any extras or know if any originals are
available anywhere? These are from Hehr
windows.
There are 2 latches per window on bottom, a
pivoting hook type latch. The base measures 3" long, and the length of the
moving arm is around 2 5/8", measuring from the center of the pivot to the
end of the arm. Cast zinc. On side of handle it says "HEHR MFG. CO.
L.A. CAL." Want original part, not substitute.
The screen retainer clip is cast zinc also, a
small cylinder with a thumb wing. There are 4/window, 2 top and 2 bottom. There
is a spring in the barrel - screw goes through.
I have some '62 parts I'd be willing to trade or
just give away if anyone can use them. Someone asked about light fixture
shades/grills, and I have decided not to use the originals. First dibs to the
person who has already asked. Most of my excess stuff is old interior parts, and
much of it was not in very good shape. There are some plumbing items, the
original porcelain toilet and holding tank, fiberglass tub (needs repair), other
odds and ends. Please contact me directly if any of this sounds of interest, and
thanks for any leads on the 2 needed parts mentioned.
