Hi Charlie
I've got some from a 1972 if that would be the same. I'll try to get pictures for you to consider, probably on Saturday. John

That was a thread that I started. Like you I was curious about replacement door strikers and didn't want to look at replacements that were wrong. John (2blu442) helped with the discussion. He suggested that door strikers that were most often in great shape as OEM (not NOS) can be obtained from the rear doors of 4 door cars. Stroke of bloody brilliance. Hardly anyone I know used the back doors that much. We just slide over the front seat when heading for the back one..
