you will need to get the door card of from inside ( this will not be easy ) then you can have a look inside. if you can try to get the door open by pulling on the rods that work the lock. then you will need to see what has broke and get back on the forum and ask us where to get the parts from or how to fix it. sorry this is all I can do to help you at the minit. also where do you live as maybe 1 of the mumbers lives near you and could give you a hand

Go onto this site and ask or e-mail Simon. http://www.street-car.net He's a nice bloke, used to be on here a lot until he flogged his yank. If he don't know he'll find out for you.

Sorry I'm late on this one mate but Oz was more or less on the spot. I did have a simular problem on a 60 Chevy Impala. Only way around it was to remove Inner Door panel although you might just cause slight damage but at least I was then able to get to the Mech of the Lock & release it.

thanx for all your tips guys. i finally managed to get it open using an old wire coat hanger. the mechanism itself is fine as it now opens from the inside everytime now but something on the outside button has broken so it wont work from outside but im slowly getting there. thanx again guys Darren
