Two types of open car door latches

[Deuce-Merchant]

Is it true that some Model A roadsters and Phaetons had no door handles and different latches with no holes for the handles?
I have seen pics of cars with no outside door handles.

Thanks for your help

1928 roadsters and phaetons had no outside handles. In late 28, Ford started to install latches with outside handles. I believe a number of 1928 roadsters and phaeton were retrofited with latches with outside handles by Ford dealerships.

Additionally, the 76-A Open Cab was produced into June 1930 and NEVER had outside handles
