Can someone post a photo of 57 Fairlane door lock pull knobs. My 57 had aftermarket ones, the donor cars had been removed so I'm not sure which ones are closest to original. I googled some but there were a variety and some were various colors too. I found some chrome looking ones that I think would look good but would like to match as close as possible to factory ones..
Thanks in advance..

They are blackish hard rubber.  I have a package of as I recall about 10 NOS Ford.  But alas I won't be back home until middle of may.  If you don't find any by then contact me and I'll give you a couple.
57 E Code Black 76B   55 Willys Aero   63 Rivera   99 Lightning  1- XK8 Convs.   05 Vanden Plas  etc.

Here's what mine look like.  Pretty sure they're the originals.

Thank you for the offer and the photo gentlemen. The one on my car is totally different, this helps me know what to look for.

Following your link & once in the 'shop' section I don't see a way to get to the online catalog. Do you have to have an account there first?
I was looking for that online catalog a while back & had the same problem with the link I'd bookmarked. Got a web page that said the address had changed but gave no new link to it.   After a lot of messing around I somehow did come up with this link that takes you to that catalog.

On my computer, on their home page, just bringing your cursor over the "shop" opens up a drop down menu with "online catalogs" being one of the 3 choices. Clicking on that brings up a screen with their different catalogs. I do not have an account there.

I only got 'shop, 'view' 'cart' & 'checkout'.
Click on shop & it takes me to a list of truck parts to chose from.
But I just found the problem.  Wasn't seeing the whole page at the normal 100%.  Strange.

Your screens are slightly different than what I get. In your second view, that red bar is the tool bar I mentioned, but don't click on "shop", just hover over it and you should then have the online catalogs as an option to click on.

Rich, look at what I circled in those pix again. The 1st one is what I see at the normal 100% page size with the 3 options that I see with cursor held over the shopping cart. That red bar doesn't show up
The 2nd pic is what I see when reduced to a 67% page size.  When I click on the 'click here' in the circled text I get to pick the catalog I want.
Like so ....
