Door Handles

[Gavin Jeffrey]

I am looking to buy 4 new (repro) exterior door handles for my 68 New Yorker,
Has anyone purchased them from Vans ? just wondering if they are any good, do they fit ok ?
Any feedback much appreciated.
Thanks
Gavin.

Hi Gavin
I bouught rebuild ones from a Chrysler 300 club member in the USA, who has an extra strong sewer machine. Just send your old ones to him, he has also the exact reproduction Material. I payed about $170 for both. Very good quality.

The reppop outside door handles will work fine on your 68 C.
I have them on my car.
BUT you will have to do some minor mods to make them work on the rear doors.
Try to use the old factory gaskets if possible and beware of the metric nuts and threads.
I actually did a tech article on this..
