glove box lock sticking

[Bruce W.]

Hey Guys,
Getting ready for PV. Glove box lock works fine but I find I have to push the lock button in to close the door . Is this correct? PV manual just says you shouldn't have to slam the Door?

Bruce,

You should not have to press the lock button to close the door. The door on my '65 will close simply by pushing on the outer door frame.

Bruce,

Have you tried lubricating the vertical latch mechanism that moves up and down when you push the button? It might be sticking or binding.
