Hey Everyone -

I have a Driver side exterior door handle for 57-8 Chrysler and Desoto 2dr HT and 4dr sedan. Not for 4dr HT. Chrome is shiny with very tiny pitting in ribbed handle. There is one small 1/4" crack in the upper chrome, about an inch from the left edge. Barely visible. $75 + shipping. PM me if interested.

Ron

The 4-door HT handle is on the left, and is dramatically different than the 2-dr and sedan versions.

So the outside is taller with longer levers on it?

Yeah, the stricker and latch are mounted lower on the B pillar in the 4 door hardtop. I expect they did that to improve the strength.

The handle pictured on the left is for 57-8 4dr HT. It has the longer connecting arm. The one on the right is for 59 except 4dr HT. The wider connecting arm is an improved design.
