Can someone tell me if the handle on the right rear barn door is the same handle used on the 47 to 51 cab doors? I have 52 GMC Sub and want to get a new handle. Lots of rust bubbling up through the chrome. They look to be the same but wanted to make sure. Lock set, door locking button, and ignition still keyed alike. Locksmith made new ones. smile

Yes and/or No, and, it depends.

Another old post contained this comment: "Keep the handle and bezel (escutcheon?) together. I had two sets from different years and the location of the handle-shafts pin-holes and the barrel in bezel/escutcheon were different."

Thanks for the link Tim. I remember reading about the sagging handle but not the interchangeability of them. Maybe a trip to a plating company will be the easiest route. Thanks again.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

That is great news Alvin. That is certainly doable. Now to see if any of the vendors will sell just one handle. Thanks a bunch for the info!!

They only sold them by the pair up until a year or so ago. Now some will sell you just one. If not, maybe do like I did. Buy two and sell the other on the Stovebolt !
