Vintage Wilmot Breeden Union Exterior Locking Door Handle Assembly with Original Keys

An original, vintage mid-century British automotive locking exterior door handle assembly, manufactured in England by Wilmot Breeden. This classic locking handle features an authentic Union lock cylinder and comes complete with two original matching Union keys stamped with key code "MRN20".

Wilmot Breeden was the prominent OEM hardware supplier for the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and Leyland groups during the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. This locking style handle is an essential piece for period-correct restorations on classic British sports cars and saloons.

Condition & Mechanical Function Report:

- Mechanical Operation: The handle spring mechanism operates smoothly and returns crisply. The original Union lock cylinder turns freely and locks securely with both of the included MRN20 keys.

- Chrome Finish: Solid vintage structural condition overall. The brightwork chrome plating displays a clean shine with normal, age-appropriate surface wear, faint hairline micro-scratches, and minor shelf-handling marks consistent with an authentic vintage auto part. The mounting spindle remains square and unstripped.

Important Note: The exact specific vehicle model and year application is ultimately unknown. Please review all high-resolution gallery close-up images to verify the spindle shape, mounting neck dimensions, and key code matching prior to purchasing.
