Thanks everyone. What a great forum! The amount of knowledge here is incredible! I will not modify the 70 latch since it is a rarity. Thanks AARCONV. I will give you first shot at it if I decide to part with it. I think I may just try to find a complete 71 and up driver's door. The reason being is that the base Barracuda doors do not have the stainless trim along the top edge like the Cuda. The body shop filled those 8 holes with filler. Over the years, most of the filler has fallen out.

Also a big thanks to CNXT for the pictures. When looking at my other 71 base coupe for comparison, I never noticed that other lever.
