[VAC] Re: Lock for '71 Safari
Nope, it wasn't me - my 64 GT came with a deadbolt in the door, looks to be
original but how can one tell? The door knob has been replaced with a Weiser
set. I have had problems as the holes in the frame are stretched and won't
hold the screws for the lock plate. I cut a piece of wood and got it behind
the spot and used wood screws to hold the lock plate. Not a permanent
solution but it works for now. My door knob set has a turn button to lock
from the inside. I can't use my deadbolt any more because the door has
dropped just far enough so I can't get the bolt into the hole in the door
frame. Any solution for this problem?
