Julian brings up a good point. The cost was for the entire door handle assembly and trunk. Although the door handle tubs are available the rest of the assembly (except for the springs) is no longer manufactured and evidently no one has them in stock. The de Tomaso BB had a discussion regarding this issue and, although many possible donor vehicles were explored, it appears this is an exclusively Pantera piece. I wonder if this was the same set, with the new owner trying for more money?
