A Strange Door Handle

May 18, 2012 - I proceed to the Shady shop today to check the status.  Dan says, "The fit on the driver's door is just about finished.  I'd like you to take a look.  Open and close it a couple of times to check out the action..."  Here's what greets me:


Right you are -- It's an old door knob and escutcheon plate. 
Very Funny!
By the way, the fit of the door is perfect!
And, on the right, the door sporting its correct door handle.  Interestingly, the open cars had differently designed door handles from the coupes and sedans.  I found a set on eBay after years of looking.
