I'm looking for a good, either restored, or relatively unused rear targa latches, for a reasonable price.

Thank you,

I should be able to assemble a pair from powder coated parts. I can check tomorrow. $60 for the pair shipped.

Sounds good, Let me know!

Are the shafts where the hook pivots in good shape? When i was looking at mine, they were pretty worn on the outside where the spring pulls them, which was, as far as I can tell, causing my issues.

Do you need cores back? I'd be happy to send mine.

Show me a picture of yours. There are two variations. Yes I can use cores.

The car is 120 miles away right now. I can get pics next weekend, or if you have pics of the two different ones, I can probably tell the difference. As far as I know, mine are original off a '72, if that helps.

Are the two different variations interchangeable?

The latches have two bumps on top that match to the part on the targa top. Wrong ones will fit but leave a top loose or sitting high. the C-C distance between the bumos is different. What year is the car? I think the change is in 1972.

The car is a '72. I guess i'll get pictures and measurements next weekend, i guess i won't be able to tell the difference.

Thanks Bruce
