ukcats07 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I finally have my 73 back in the garage after 5 years and I'm finding little things like my door handles, locks, etc are missing. The car was painted when my uncle had it and he unfortunately passed so I can't ask where those things are located. To my question... Does anybody know where to source the actuator rod that connects to the exterior door handle? I found my passenger side in the bottom of the door panel, but I'm assuming my driver's side stayed attached to the handle that is unfortunately missing. I've attached a picture for reference.

Mayolives Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 maseraticompound@gmail.com Maserati Compound This guy has Datsun parts that can be hard to find. Searching is a little strange because I have found z and zx parts mislabled but if you take a look you will find good pictures of what he has and he ships fast.

I actually found this site shortly after posting. I'm in contact with him and it sounds like he might have one available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
