RALLYE ENTERPRISES, LTD: Datsun Roadster Door Handle, Inside.63-67

Datsun Roadster Door Handle from Rallye Enterprises, Ltd.

Handles were available as an assembly with the attaching bracket or as just the bare handle. Typically when the type with the bracket was purchased you also received the long connecting rod that ran to the latch on the other end of the door; sometimes with the entire latch attached!

INSIDE DOOR HANDLE 68-69 #805-35

There were actually two different types of interior door open handles used from 68-70. In late 1969 production Nissan gave up on the "quick-to-pop-off" plastic do-dad trim. They altered the handle a bit and began glueing in typical seat vinyl in between the chrome ridges. You can do this on the 68-69 handles but it doesn't look as good as it does on the 69-70 handles. We have taken a couple of pictures to show the actual difference.The chrome edge goes around the sides on both handles but on the later handles this raised edge is also on the ends of the handles. At this point; August 2018 we are just about out of both types in a new part but will leave this up to help in keeping with our attempts at getting as much info out as possible. There was no VIN given in the parts book as to when this change took place; we estimate about SRL311-12000 and SPL311 26000.
