RE: [T3] Door questions


To add another example, my '65 Notch S, which dispite the rust, and the run
in with a Mercedes,  seems to be all original, (well in terms of the doors
anyway).  My "S" has each door lock cylinders below the haandle, and the
interior door locks as part of the door handle.  There is no stamping or
dimple for the lock knob on the trailing, top edgeof the door.   As was
mentioned before the T1 Ghias also had this or a similar handle, and was
part of the 71 MY.  Funny, VW  introduced/reintroduced this in 71 on the T1
Ghias, and even deleted the hole, but did not change the profile of the area
for the lock knob .  My '70 Ghia had the knob  on the trailing edge of the
door top.  Again sadly both Ghias were rusty, but original.

There seems to be enough disagreement on this question that this may 
be the answer. The microfilm calls out 2 door lock cylinders per car, 
however this would not be the first time it had an error.
