Triumph/TR3A Projects:Door Handle Stops

The door handles on my Triumph TR3A started to come up too high.

This happened on both doors of my car, so I'm going to guess the problem isn't uncommon, but fortunately it's easy to fix.

Door handle
too high
The culprit
lock washer had come off, and the blocking pin on the handle (where my finger is pointing) had come out far enough to get around the door metal.
Reinstalled,
the blocking pin now properly comes into contact with the door
And it makes a big difference!
