So going to my Girlfriends because its her birthday I stopped to get gas and my friggin door handle broke. My passenger one was already broken from before I got it. I talked to Micheal from here and the forum and with the help of pliers and a coat hanger got my door open.
Now the only problem is putting new handles on.

That should do the trick. But why not use one of our vendors.. www.palmettoponysales.com or www.foxmustangrestoration.com

Is this the correct stuff I need to make my doors work again?

Stay with the black, they look some much better then the chrome ones, IMO.
Like Bones said, you can get them from one of our sponsor's also.:thumbsup1:

Those are the ones I have but I had a hard time finding a rivet gun with a port large enough to use those size rivets..they are huge.

Well I was going off what Micheal told me. I cannot find door handles on either though, but send me the link if you can!

My friend bought the same ones, who hopefully might help me put them on, has a guy with a gun down the road he used and thinks we can borrow.:thumbsup1:

I agree with shawn. Palmetto ( a vendor) has great door handles, im not sure of the price on them (he has told me, but i always forget) they are rivited in, not bolted. There metal i know he has black, but im not sure about any other color.
