I own a 1931 Deluxe Fordor Town Sedan, Slant window. While driving down the road, the lock cylinder fell out of the door handle, any ideas on how to replace the cylinder? New locking handle $45.

Same thing happened to me on my 29 Town Sedan many years ago.

I would try Bert's in Colorado for a replacement cylinder. Meanwhile, I fashioned a little thing from a cut off plastic eye dropper that I could reach in the hole to lock/unlock the door. Worked better than my replacement cylinder.
