Wow, weird memories.  Sold one off my parts car to a lady in NYC working 
for "O Magazine".  Think I shipped it to a World Trade Center address 
using Oprah's fed-ex acct number I was given!

Umm, no, don't have one to offer.  But there were a million or so B13s 
built -- junkyard??

On some cars the lock cylinder can be removed from the whole door latch 
and handle assembly.  If the lock cylinder itself is just the problem, 
and the car is like that, you might be able to swap the cylinders 
between sides and at least have a working driver's side.
