1 or 2 Lock sets for Double Latch T-Tops
I have a 76, the T-tops have two latches on each top instead of one latch and a pin like the later model C3's. On later models since the latch controlled the movement of the pin a single latch lock worked, my consern is that if one latch is lockless and the other is latch locked could some one wiggle the locked latch free if they lossened the lockless latch... how much wood would a woodchuck chuck... :crazy: :D

You'll never know until you try. The latch bumpers are rubber tipped,
so I think there is enough slop to get the top off with one handle latched.
The pin that fits into the windshield moulding may be the only thing that
might hold it on with one lock.
I guess I'm lucky. We don't worry much about things like this where I live.
My wife hangs the keys on her shifter after she parks the truck. Of course,
who wants to risk it all to steal an 88 K5 Blazer. :lol:
