Door Handles

Post by mtw »

I have seen pics of Chief door handles with the open end facing forward and some facing rearward. The service manual does not have a real good picture, but appears it show the handle facing rearward. Is this correct?

Thanks,

My '46 Chief appears original and the door handles point rearward.
