Default 1975 corvette door latch problem

I have a 1975 Stingray that needs to have the drivers side door latch mechanism replaced. Where is the lowest cost place to get a replacement? Cheapest cost I have found thus far is $100 to $115 plus shipping.

thanks

You can always try ebay. I got a used one for about $40. it needed to be cleaned and lubed, but it worked great. Just make sure you do not buy one for a later model C3. they look real similar.
