You are better off buying new ones from Carpenter, Mid-Fifty,etc. I have a set but they are scratched and the chrome is very poor. I bought new ones rather than rechroming.

I went to a wrecking yard (memory lane) where they have old trucks, etc. I could find any handles that were worth anything, but I found a 58 Ford truck, actually there were several in the yard. This one had brand new handles on the doors. I found out that the 58 truck handles were the same as my 56. I removed them and they charged me $5.00 for each handle. Just some advice to maybe save you a few bucks.
