May look at that option.
Already done too much floor work to back up and redo.
Thank you. I think that is what I needed to see.
Will have the support rods for top just wasn't sure about securing the bottom. Thanks and I'll check that out.

Will be using 32 grill shell. Forgot to mention that.
What are the options on mounting a 32 Ford radiator in a non 32 Ford? I know fabrication will be required but don't want to worry about radiator...

Bingo! That's what I was needing to know. Thanks. Now to find one.
From what I find it is close to F1 door latch. There are some on the bay that are exactly like it but hate to buy another wore out one. Thinking...
Took apart and completely wore out. Have seen some on the net that matches but no precise year.
International used a latch made by Ford for late 30s early 40s cars. I was just hoping someone might recognize what it was used on .
Can't believe that nobody on here hasn't ran into a Ford door latch like this.
Looking for any information on if anyone makes repo door latch like this. It's from a '49 international kb but looks like what I find pics of...
I'm building a '49 International truck and it has a separate gasket that goes on body around windshield opening to seal against windshield frame...
