My dad has a 73 Challenger, we're looking for the door latch mechanism on the driver side. (The part that latches onto the striker). I believe 70-74 cuda's and challenger's used the same part... Thanks~

70 latches were different but will work in all years. In 1970 you couldn't lock the door from the inside and then shut the door. The door would unlock if you did that. The door had to be locked with the key. I believe there is an extra part on the 70 latch that can be removed to make it function like a 71-74.
