Default Re: 1955/56 ford door interchange

Whilst I was restoring my 55 Tudor I fitted 56 door locks to a door hoping to have the safer 56 latches. When I closed the door the star wheel hit the B pillar and would not close. I already had the car painted and didn't want to rework the latch area of the B pillar. One day I might bite the bullet and make them fit but if I was going to that trouble I would rather fit bear claw latches.
