Restoration Parts Wanted

Wanted for the restoration of my 1927 Star Touring but 1924,25 or 26 probably will work.
1 right side door latch
3 recessed striker plates
4 outside door handles
any seat spring measurements
Steering column to dash brackets
Spark advance and speed control levers
folding top frame or any parts thereof

Thanks for the help. A fun job and especially with my two buddies, TRIAL and ERROR.

Re: Restoration Parts Wanted

Hello, David,
I have top bows that I was told by an old Durant/Star guy are for a '24 Star F touring. I may have some door latch parts. I need some of the same things that you need viz, spark and throttle lever and quadrant. And I need the shaft for the steering column. When my Star was resting in the field, someone removed the steering wheel with a hacksaw. Even if just the last few inches of the steering wheel would be a help so I could weld it onto my cut-off shaft. I have another steering wheel. I need a radiator cap yand gas cap, and could do with the nut that holds the steering wheel on.
I will check on the door latches and maybe it is time I learned how to send photos by email. If I figure it out I'll send you photos. -Hal
