Door Handles

During the month or so of waiting for the approval letter from JPJ .... I manage to do a few things on the car... namely the Door Handles. Interior door cards and the Fuel Pedal.... oh and also the horn.

The car came with an original stainless steel wrapped passenger side door handle but had a recast driver's side handle... which never fit properly on the car and was horribly pitted...

I was not having any luck finding a stainless steel wrapped 65 driver's side handle... until one day i found a one for a 66 on Mudah... i just grabbed it cos it was in super good condition but i knew that the key mech and the inner stuff will not work on a 65... but i figured i will swap the inner stuff from the 65 to the 66... and it worked...

This is the 66 stainless steel wrapped driver's side door handle....... was so happy to find it...

The 65 on the left has a sliding locking mech while the 66 on the right has a paddle style lock... swapped over these elements and i put it on the car....   It fit like a glove....
