Hello friends,

Today I've released a new item from Fireball Modelworks. Door handles for late-50's through 1972 passenger cars! As usual, these pieces were designed in 3D and pressure-cast in polyurethane resin. Each pack contains four pairs (that's eight pieces). They are 1/24 scale, but will work with 1/25 scale really well.
Ordering and pricing details for item FMR-047 are available at Fireball Modelworks.

They look great. I also noticed that you have 1/25 275 drag radials in 2 flavors. Great addition to the catalog. you are just trying to tempt me to place an order aren't you?

Thanks for all the positive feedback. With luck, a Mopar handle will be next. And yes, Dave, I would very much like to separate you from your money. I promise that you'll get the highest-quality items you can't get anywhere else!

I received my door handles today along with a pair of Rochester carbs (and some wheels/tires) , and I gotta say that these are much more impressive when you hold them in your hands . . . these parts are beautifully detailed !

Thank you very much Joseph , I'm looking forward to seeing what you do next ! :D

I received my door handles today and am absolutely, totally impressed and pleased! Everything is first rate including the packaging - each set of handles arrived n it's own tiny padded box !!!! These are exactly what I need for my SMP '59 Impala redo and while not authentic to a model of this age, they will add a touch of class and now I can get back to the build. I put it on hold when I saw the door handles and I ordered them right away! This is an answer to a need for many of us who like a bit of external detail without spending a lot of time trying to painstakingly carve out the back sides of door handles. Thanks Joe and I know that I will be ordering more. Maybe this will be the start of a real quality expanding line of door handles as well as a variety of difficult to find door and fender mirrors??? *hint, hint* I'd be in for some of thse, that is for certain!!! These handles are highly recommended - I'd give these a AAA+++ rating for quality and service!!! Now, back to work and we return you to our regular programming... :mellow::):D;)

Can't say enough about the quality of products and service from Joseph at Fireball Modelworks. I have a number of his items including these new door handles and they are top notch. Very fine and probably the only actual scale replicas ever made - kit pieces tend to be bulky even of molded separate.
