Topic: Door Handles
I have a a bunch of decent door handles that I've dug out of my garage. But I can't figure out which number / type goes to the manufactured years. I 've looked at my NOS sets and got even more confused.
The number is stamped on the inside of the handle: 1. RH handle/ long shaft/ #392898 - What years: 67? 2. LH handle/ short shaft/ #392897 - What years: 68-72? The number on the boxes are all different but the handles are stamped the above two numbers. So, I assuming GM continued making the same handles by number but changed the box number in accordance with the application. I also read where the 67-68 handles were drilled/ tapped at a different angle. Does anyone have the correct GM part numbers to each type/year handle? Any clarification would be helpful... Wonder if I have to cut the long shaft on #392898 to make it useable on a 68-72 door? Hmm... Thanks David
