Hi Folks,
I need a new front latch for my targa top. New seals and first time going out of the shop under power. Great thing to do, but the fit was too stiff with new seals and the handle broke away in my hand just as the latch seater. Tempted to cast some in aluminum, or machine one, but don’t really need that project. Thanks. Also I need a charcoal canister. This is a ‘76 and I have routed a new vapor line, but lack the canister. Thanks again. |

Thanks again. I think Auto Atlanta and Uro make the handles. I restore the latches but many I have are with broken handles. They should have been cast in metal. I should have an extra charcoal canister. Where are you mounting it? 75-76 had them mounted to the battery tray. 74 had them mounted to the rear firewall. |

The handles should have been made out of aluminum in my view, which is dim sometimes I have to admit. |
