Thank you for the quick responded. It is in fact a 4 door car with suicide doors. As I learn more about the model and other info I will be sure to post it with my questions moving forward.
I suspect it is the square part in the door latch mechanism. I changed the handle from the passenger side and still same issue so the handle seems to be ok. Oddly the back door had a different length shaft. I will take it apart this when I have time and I will post it on the parts wanted section. If not available quickly I will do as you suggest and sacrifice the back door. I also included a picture of the car in that is helpful to anyone. Attach file: packard .PNG (624.26 KB)

I recently inherited my fathers 1935 Packard 111. I have helped work on it for my entire life but I am now going to be doing maintenance and repair now onward. Overall the car is in great shape but needs a couple of little things to improve the ride.
Firstly is there a site you can recommend for maintenance info and parts? Secondly the front drivers side door is not opening when the handle is turned but it works on the inside. I took it apart and seems like the inner handle square is no longer square. Any suggestions on a fix? Thank you for any insight and help. I am looking forward to being a Packard owner for a long time. -Pat
