I have never seen this one before but I just purchased an AC-3456 Rear Door Safety Lock from an eBay auction. It looks to be from the 1960's given the "S" logo on the instructions. I will likely install it on my '64 Wagonaire. Has anyone seen this accessaory before and does anyone know what years it was available? I am familiar with the older type accessory rear door safety lock for the 1947-52 suicide door cars but not this newer type. Picture below. Bill Jackameit.

Jack: These aren't terribly rare; I've seen a few, to answer your first question.
As to the second part of your question, AC3456 is shown as being for 1963 and newer 4-door models (sedans and wagons).
It may have replaced SP50079, which seems to be the same thing for 1956-1962. BPWe've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.
