    65/66 or 67 door handles

    Hi,

    What do I have here? 65/66 or 67 door handles?

    I know about the difference in the push button (concave for 65/66 and convex for 67). Is there a difference in the shape for 65/66 and 67? Dr. B. Johnson guide states the 67 to be 'bulkier than' earlier production...

    Thanks in advance

    Chris

    The Johnson comment for the bulkier door handle came from the observation of the door handles next to one another - exactly as you have done it your above photo - the convex key area looks more substantial .... you know bulkier. Without the two put together in a photo the words imply something else. And as the book was going to press the timing didn't allow the addition of a photo. Your photo would have given the comment the correct focus.

    The handle casting is exactly the same for both.
