  • Chrome Door Handles & Trim

    Years ago a Thunderbird accessories supplier had chrome Exterior door handle & trim kits. This supplier is gone. These were chrome/ stainless that used 3 M tape to adhere the pieces to the existing door handle & trim around the pocket the handle is recessed into.

    I am looking for a set. Maybe someone has a set they purchased years ago & elected not to install. Or maybe someone has a used set that was removed with limited damages.

    If you have a set & want to part with it send me a PM with price plus shipping and will go from there.

    Seems that these are suddenly in demand. LAPhil is also looking to buy a set.

      With a quick look on the interweb, I found this site that you might try.

          Reasonable price. I question whether the site shows actual photos of the products. The handle set has no opening for the key. They also show a tail light bezel that is not in the shape of the light.

              ​​​​​​That's a good point, certaily makes one wonder about the creditably of their products. But Black Beauty had mentioned the price is the same for the door handle kit.
              Their picture of the tail light trim looks more like for a F series truck than any Thunderbird.

                Slickcar.com is a dead site.
                It is there on the internet but it doesn't function. Yes it opens but you can't buy anything. I just tried. Tried two ways, first attempt was using the link here on the thread provide. 2nd attempt was by going directly to slickcar.com
                Nothing functions.....dead site. You can look at old pages but nothing else.

                But thanks, I'll keep searching. Maybe something will pop.

                    Had that link proved active I would have predicted you would soon see those very same handle covers for sale on Phils site for something near $229 a pair.

                          Harry that's all very interesting but don't you think if this guy had anything left in his inventory folks here on the site would be boasting about what they bought for some incredibly low price never mentioing the words " made in China"..

                          And then we would see a run of posts about how good it looks or all the negatives by the purists telling everyone why its not for them.

                          No, Harry I don't think this guy & his site is valid. But thanks for the effort.

                            I met a new member 'Bob' with his immaculate red 04 today. Two items he wanted to buy were the door handle chrome and the chrome scoop. I had to tell him he's too late....he also liked the push button remote door locks which are still available from Ford.

                              I don't care if the guy has anything. You said you tried to contact him two ways, I just wanted to give you other options to reach him.
