In a deal I made with someone, I bought a 1979 Fleetwood Brougham and got a '78 parts car. In looking over this '78 Brougham, I've come to the conclusion that it may be in better condition than either of my other two Broughams. The trim above the beltline has been hit, maybe someone's frustration due to the fact that neither door on the driver's side would open. I thought that one could get to the door mechanisms from the inside, but that was not the case. I've removed the left front fender and unbolted the door hinges. Now the door is suspended by the latch and the control harnesses.
Does anyone have any experience with door mechanisms that lock and won't unlock? One of my Coupes did the same thing. On the driver's side also.
