    Default '83 Caddy Seville repair questions

    I would really like to talk to someone that has had this car to answer some of my questions. Seems my driver side door lock is shot and it likes to sound the alarm. How hard will it be to switch locks with passenger side?

    Driver side visor seems to be worn out, screwing it in didn't fix it, it keeps coming down and smackin me in the face, . Anyway to fix this?!

    Lastly, what is a good primer that I can use to take care of some scratches on body and rust spot on hood?

    don't junk yards have your locks and visor?
    - primers, any primer would work with scratches, if you can feel the scratch with your finger nail, it'll show when painted. If the scratch is deep might wanna use high solid primer, ( yellow) but if it's a shallow scratch, gray primer works.
    - For rust, grind it all off and etch pime it, ( E.P.) (dull greenish yellow color) but don't breath in any of it, we call them cancer in cans. But, most of the time rust always comes back
