Subject: Re: Outer Door Handles & Bakerlite Horn Shaped Inner Door Locks
By chance, I have finally found the source of these door pins/pulls. A friend had a Humber Sceptre parked outside his house, and I went to see it...

They were used on the Humber Sceptre Mk 1, made from 1961 - 1967 and the early Hillman Hunter which shares many parts with the car; the Ford Cortina Mk 1 made from 1962 - 1967, and maybe other 1960's Fords.

On the Humber they are the same dimensions as on the Rapide, whilst on the Fords, they are 5 mm longer, so can be easily cut to size. The door pulls on the Fords are in black and also a silver finish plastic.

I picked up a good set of four, on eBay, see the following link:
