Title says it; looking for the ones that have the hard plastic knobs, not the soft sqishy ones like the repops.
DM with photos and price shipped to 19147...thanks. I need only one but two will do.

If post a picture, I may have one. I have a box of orphans. I am not going to do the research to figure out if I have a '72,,,

Dan, I think the 70-73 is all the same; I'll get you a photo later

72s had "soft squishy" knobs. Hard plastic ended in 1967 in the US. Just buy the repops and change them every year when the knobs fall off. Kinda like changing your oil, you need to do it on a regular basis.

Jim,
The passenger side has a hard plastic one. I had a driver side repop soft and squishy, but it fell off. The driver side one I have is what came with the car, hard plastic, which I much prefer, but it is somewhat loose.

Dan, if you have one (or two) with hard plastic, please let me know.
Thanks both for the info

If you want a cheap fix, remove the cover from the knob and put a tight fitting washer inside it to firm it up.

Harry, I'll try that when my car is back from Treffen in CA

I removed the top and filled with liquid epoxy.. after it hardened, it was a solid knob. to keep the epoxy from oozing into the "bushing", I sprayed it with penetrant first, placed a small piece of saran wrap over the bottom of the hollow knob, poured, placed the cap. and turned the assembly over so gravity kept it away from the connection.. works great,

Got a pair of handles...thanks, everyone.
