66 F85 or Cutlass window cranks

What we have here are super hard to find window crank handles for 66 F85 or Cutlass in RED. Very slight pitting, Red ***** are very nice. One inside door handle included. $100 plus shipping. Cash or postal MO only. Not a scam, I have been a member here for many years, just getting rid of excess parts.

Excuse me if I'm wrong, but they don't look RED to me.

They are not a solid red but a clear with red pigment. They are not clear ones that have discolored. Very hard to find as not many cars came with this color *****. The centers are gold.

Sorry but those are not from a 66. Olds didn't use that style crank until 69.

Had a 66 F85 Holiday 442 with these cranks. Bought new by a friend. Regardless of application, they are still hard to find. I am not questioning your Olds expertise, but this style of window crank was available in at least the 67 models.

Window crank and door handle

These are not correct for a 66. They are not rare and are not red. Case closed!

Case is not closed! Do not be an a$$ and not comment on other peoples sales please. The handles are exactly the same as 66/67. The ***** are NOT the same as 66/67. The handles are. And they are translucent RED with gold inserts.

I'm sorry to tell you the handles are not even close to a 66 and 67 handle. They are not red but clear plastic that has aged.

Unless you see these items in person, do not make smart a$$ remarks like that. They are translucent RED with Gold inserts. And the handles are exactly the same as 66/67 whether you think so or not.

It's not a smart *** comment. I've been restoring and had multiple very low mileage 66 and 67 cars. THIS is a correct 65 and 66 only handle.

RIGHT!!!!!
Sorry ED, you are totally wrong here. My 66, sold new in the small town where I live, has the chrome cranks. And no matter how much you try to make a silk purse from a sows ear, those cranks are badly discolored, perfectly usable, and someone might like them as is.

Yes the base F85 would have color matched ends on them. F85 deluxe and Cutlass got the all chrome ones.

No matter how much all of you berate the post, I know where these handles came from. They might have been replaced at some time or another, but they did come from a 66 Cutlass or F85. And the color is factory, not faded clear as some have expressed, they are a shade of translucent RED with gold inserts. Unless you can hold these in your hand and see the color, please do make remarks that they are faded clear. I know the difference.
Thank you very much and if anyone is not interested in a purchase, keep your posts to yourselves.
