[AMC-List] 61 Rambler Wagon door latch mechanism

[Michael Pell <mjpell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On my '61 Rambler wagon, the driv door latch part, described as  "Lock 
Outside Latch" in my service manual doesn't spring back when the door is 
opened.
I can manually rotate it to shut the door, but if I do not rotate it, 
then I can't close the door.

Would anyone have the spring required to rotate it back into position?

Thanks,
Mike
