need help deciding on this door handle
tell me what u think about the door handle. be honest, dont lie. like to know what yall think before i spend alot of time on making it functional. the handle came off of a 53 chevy pickup. and i know people say if u like it,it doesnt matter. but im just wondering what yall think. im using this as a mock up. i will be buying new ones.

Re: need help deciding on this door handle
I think it looks nice! After you get a new one and get that one to fit right it will look even better. That's cool!

Re: need help deciding on this door handle
I don't know...it doesn't look awfut, but I think it might be too round for a square body.
That same handle was used up through '66. Hey John P- That handle is also a pushbutton.

Re: need help deciding on this door handle
Sticks out to far for me. There are many options to choose from, but that one doesn't look right to me.
