Information on a Glovebox Lock

[waldo1300]

I have just purchased a 1982 Avanti II and many of the other models that i looked at were missing a glovebox lock. The owner thought it was a Chrysler option. I need help finding a used glovebox lock or is there a new part number that i can use to find this piece. Any information would be gladly appreciated, thanks.

I can't give you a direct answer to your question, but can strongly recommend that you also post it on two more active boards. For some reason, the Yahoo Avanti board gets much more traffic from the more mechanically involved Avanti owners. It's address is: http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/avanti

And, though Avanti's aren't its main focus you'll find a lot of useful Avanti info on the message boards at: studebakerdriversclub.com
