As I recall the 100/6s with the locking door handle on one side had a small lever on the inside door handle of the other side which permitted locking that side

I seem to remember the early  sixes having a  lock on the drivers side door.  This seems to  be  a waste except for the people to stupit to  go the other side of the car.

My BJ7, which I have owned since 1984,  had lockable door handles with push buttons. When I restored the car in the early 1990?s I had the original door handles reinstalled. I was told that the push buttons were wrong and I wanted my car to be more original. If I remember correctly the conversion was not a major big deal.

Lockable doors don't seem to be much of a theft deterrent. Having lived in
Boston for many years in the age of British sports cars, I saw plenty with
broken vent windows or slashed convertible tops that defeated locked doors.
Maybe putting a tracker in the car and an ignition cutoff might be more
effective
