Hi,

I just broke the round black button on my 67 front window handle.
Can I replace that button, or do I need to buy a new handle?

Thanks,

Bernard

Doubt you'd find just the specific "67" replacement knob by itself.
A used handle with a good knob is about your only choice for that one..

The window winder is a 1967-only part. The riveted plastic knob is not available separately. But I believe Vintage Parts Inc (Valencia, Ca) does offer reproductions. Originals can still be found from around $30/ea
