Woodie Interior Door Handles


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi all:  does anyone have a picture of the trim (escutcheons) around interior door handles on a woodie wagon?  I know on the sedans, there's a spring inside the door cards that pushes the trim tight against the door handle.  But on the woodie's, the door cards are wood - so there's no place for the spring to hold the trim tight against the handle.  Is there some sort of gasket or something on the woodie wagons?

 

Thanks!

Not sure what Plymouth did, but 41 and 42 Chrysler Town and Country used this cup and cover setup.

Didn't have a set off the car but its similar to the 48 sedan I'm working on now which looks like this second pic.

Here's the door from my '40. If I remember correctly, they were spring-loaded which allowed you to push it in enough to get pin out and remove the escutcheons.
