1965 door handles
i've gotta bit of a problem, my car came with the quarter window handles as door handles for whatever reason. i happen to live about 2 hrs from the mustangs unlimited wharehouse in georgia so i picked up some new handles, but they don't fit. i've gotta 65 coupe and i'm pretty sure they gave me clip ons by accident, but these door handles do have holes. but it's kind of confusing cause the handles didn't come with screws but have screw holes. what's going on?

He's not talking about the front vent windows James. He's talking about the rear quarter window handle which is a clip on, whereas the front door handle has an allen screw that attaches it. See the pic of my 65 door handle. I have no idea why the new handle didn't come with the allen screw, but that is no biggie. Just go to the local hardware store and get one that will fit that handle.
