What car was the donor for your door handles?

Thanks Kevin, It has been a pretty good learning experience, I have done lots of stock type restorations work. Never one to this extreme.. Hope next picture you see it is painted...

If you look at the mid 90s buick lesabre,, Some of the Chevy Malibu's. I think mine came out of a Malibu. Look up 2005. There are a ton of GM vehicles with that same handle.. Front door handles have locks rears don't. I am thinking of running power locks then using the rear handles..

It's Painted!
 

Well after working on this project fort he last 7 years off and on. I finally painted it. It took about 6 hrs to get it done. Sealer, base, midcoat and clear. I used my friends booth. It was a cool 65 degree day in Wyoming. Overall it turned out pretty good, Haven't sprayed a complete car for about 10 years. Little nerve racking, but at the end of the day I proved to myself that I can still paint.. Amazingly.. The pictures make the car look rust colored. It is close to the red on the new fords. I went to the shop this morning and installed the wheels and rolled it outside. Then just stared at it for a few hours.. Will start the polishing process on Monday..

Oh Yeah!!!!!!! I've been hitting refresh on your thread all week! LOL
