Parts for '78 Door Lock

Does anyone know a source for buying parts to replace worn out parts for the origianl fornt door handle lock for a 78'? I saw that Out of Doors Mart offers a repar kit for a Keeler lock but I do not beleive this to be the correcct item for mine. The tab that catches and turns inside has worn down and no longer functions properly, it is a part that can be removed and replace if i can find a supplier.

Any/All help appreciated.

Keeler Brass, made the original lock for a 78. It could have been replaced with a GM type lock.n

Both of those companies have been out of business for many years.

There are update kits available that get you into the new style locks that Airstream uses.
