window cranks

[tinman75]

I know window cranks were clear for 69 but were they for 68 also. Mine is black standard int.

68's were color matched to the interior.

Was there a front part number and a seperate rear part number for the cranks?  For the rears to clear the trim on the panel?

[bertfam]

Gary, for 1968 there was only one handle used (front and rear, standard or deluxe), but there were different part numbers, depending on the color.

Black - 7752485
Red - 7767319
Blue - 7767322
Turquoise - 7767320
Gold - 7767325
Parchment - 7767326
White - 7767333

Sorry, I meant to ask about for 1969.

[bertfam]

Gary,

For 1969 the same handle was used front and back, standard or deluxe interior (P/N was 8732961). These same handles were also used on most 1969-1972 GM cars as well.

The reason I am asking is that Rick's First Gen is advertising a new more correct part. One for the front and omne for the back. Re-tooled for the correct spline depth.

[bertfam]

Yeah, there's been a lot of dissatisfaction with the repops. Read THIS THREAD for more info.

None of the reproduction or current GM handles are 100% technically correct.  Anyone doing a car to concours standards will seek out good used originals.
