35 Ford Exterior Door Handle
I only have three original exterior door handles for my 35 convertible sedan and
am trying to find one more original. Does anyone have one I can buy? There isn't a correct reproduction being made. My originals are die cast with stainless escut- cheons. Can send pictures of one of my handles to your email. Thanks, Peter |

Re: 35 Ford Exterior Door Handle
The 3W and the Cabriolet also used die cast handles, but the Conv. Sedan handle is unique. The 3W and Cabriolet handle shaft has a recess in the square operator shaft. I bought 48-702350 from Mac's I was surprised to see a die cast handle with a 3-3/4" long, 5/16" square, shaft without any recess. The mounting plate is also die cast not stainless. I do not have an original C.S. handle to see if this reproduction handle would replace with slight modification. It does appear with modification it could replace the 3W & Cabriolet handle. If your looking for an original with patina suggest you advertise in the wanted section here and at the V8 Club form.

Re: 35 Ford Exterior Door Handle
The 38 hardware book indicates the front can be used on the rear if the rear handle was not available. It appears to be a simple drill and tap for the 10-32 screw, if necessary.

Re: 35 Ford Exterior Door Handle
Once again I need to be educated about another 35 item. I did see the mention and picture of a front and rear convertible sedan exterior handle in my copy of the 38 hardware book
but need to know how to properly understand which is which as I don't know . Peter |

Re: 35 Ford Exterior Door Handle
Here is the relationship of the interior escutcheon to the door latch mecanism. Typical for front or rear door.
