Very very rare. Worth ten times that asking price. Someone should tell the seller not to go so cheaply.

Might be a good deal, they look like they could be off of the '56 to '60 Corvettes.

Agree!

I am always looking at ebay motors vintage parts and see all kinds of crap on there never even dreamed of for a Corvette. I always want to send the seller a note and ask them how do they know this goes on a 68 Corvette????

These are the original door handles for a 1970 equipped with 1967 doors... I should list mine, I've got a box of originals...

Now.. someone please bump my sale thread..

Those came standard on the corvettes that were made out of metal, before they started using fiberglass. i had one girl tell she had a corvette made of steel, back in the day at a car show.

My friends dad had one these older cars that were made of steel, way before they made them out of plastic. Volunteered this information when he saw mine. I just agreed, did not want to break his fantasy.

Those handles are for the TWO CAR GARAGE...that once upon a time..a '70 corvette may have been stored in.

I love the guys who sell 77-82 'Stingray' parts....Rule # 1 RUN AWAY FAST.
