Default '37 Pickup Outside Door Handle

Can anyone identify the correct outside door handle for a '37 pickup? ...Or help postitively identify any of these handles. Pictured are four different handles.
There are two pictures of the same handles, left to right, top to bottom except for the last one which is by itself.

This is what is on my truck. As far as I know they're original - and obviously unrestored to date.

OK, first I could easily be wrong but...


The first handle looks to be a 1936 Standard.
The second (curved) handle looks to be 1936 Deluxe, also used on 1937 Pickups.
The third (curved) handle looks to be 1937 Passenger.
The fourth (curved) looks to be 1938 Standard.


The shaft length and notches differed between various body styles so whether or not any one of the handles would actually work in your pickup is a crap shoot.

To me, the 5th and 6th pics look to be for a 37 passenger, that is what my 37 Fordor has (I could be wrong)

I believe that your 3rd photo shows the correct door handles for your 37 pickup. The double notches in the handle seem to be the identifier. Here is your photo and an image from the Ford Hardware and Trim Book for comparison.
