1980 Brat Door Handles

Featured Replies

Hi, I have 1980 Brat and I'm looking for the inside and out door handles for my driver side door.

I've checked my local junk yards and can't seem to find any.

Right now I took the handle off the tailgate to at least open the door.

I know the handles on the GL/Leone are the same.

Any help would be appreciated

I have some nice interior handle assemblies and the metal rods back to the latch.
