Mike: It has been part of my Healey folklore but not due to hard driving.
Two times the door latch in the driver's door has worn out just from age and
use. I drove home from southern California several years ago with a bungee
cord between the driver and passenger door pulls.
I take it apart, build up the surface of the 'catch' (?), and reassemble.
The part is not available. I think it is the un-numbered piece that is
sticking up from the Remote Control Assembly (Moss item 40 in the Doors and
Fittings diagram. Also N/A). A pain in the butt to get in and out of the
door but is repairable even if only temporarily.
