Hi Gaz
I started a similar thread a little while back about the prices things go for on e-bay when I was totally gobsmacked at the prices some things were going for.
Yes, there are a lot of crossover parts between the US GM and GMH cars of the same era.
In fact, in the last year, Rares has started to import and sell more US GM items as replacement parts for GMH cars.
Wish you the best with your build.

I'm not sure that the door handles would fit a FE/FC if you have a look at the ebay link below, there are some clear pics of the door handle, it looks like a different profile and a larger circumference where the door button pushes into the striker
see what you all think, fingers crossed i might be wrong, but it wasn't too long ago i put my door handles on and i'm almost sure they didnt look like that contour.... be nice if they were, the Chevy ones are cheap ( well a lot cheaper ) for brand new
please let me know

They look more like a possible match with EJ -EH exterior ones
I think you will find that it is the interior handles and window winders (but not the short quarter vent winder) that match
Also, (not sure what year model) the FE interior arm rest is the same as well

thankx Gary,
i did search and find the internal handles and like you said they all look the match, the external handles would have been great if they matched

Sounds great Ken,...... any idea how much they will be ? also i remember awhile ago there were some repro scratch plates, if i recall they were scrapped due to lack of quality...are they still on the back burner or DOA ?
thankx Ken

Price not settled yet - early days into manufacture. Less than $150 per pair is most likely
