'39 L.Z Glove box door

[cdan34]

I'm in the restoration process of putting the interior of my '39 coupe together. I don't know how the glove box door stays closed. On the passenger side, the lock can keep it closed but on the drivers side nothing. Was there a spring for the lower section of these doors to keep them shut ?

There is a "horseshoe" shaped spring that fits to the lower section of the glove box doors. If you look carefully you will see the recess where it fits.

1937-39 are all the same and maybe the later cars also.

I see the recess where that would fit in the door. I wouldn't have guessed it, is there anywhere I can buy those type of springs.
