My '74 is the same song and dance and the way I got it open was using a
little screw driver(after pushing the button in) to get it open. This is not
a every day solution though. Therefore, I got a key made for the lock and
when you push in the button you can use the key to pull the door open. Later
I found out that earlier models had a little finger pull mounted just below
the lock so that it doesnt take you and some other tool to get the blasted
door open. I've bought one but still have not put it on. Like you, I wonder
if there isnt supposed to be some spring or something on the "post finger
pull" models. Anyone?

...I have the finger pull version but I remember on my brothers two TR6s that
you had to hit the cubby door button somewhat like a wood pecker to get it
open - worked great once you figured that out and wow what a natural born
theft deterant!...give it one very quick poke and back off fast and maybe it
will open..
good luck
