Add the Bespoke 1946-1948 Lincoln Push Button Exterior Door Handles to Your Ride Many high end vehicles in the 1930s and '40s featured an exterior push button door handle as a feature not found on base models or other vehicle lines. Over the ensuing decades car manufacturers went from pull-type handles to flush fit "lift up" handles and then back to pull-type handles (some handles pull outward to actuate the latch versus a push button in the handle). Now we are seeing the return of the exterior push button latch on many new cars although they are now electrically actuated. The post-war standout here was the 1946 Lincoln Continental and its push button door handles. Lincoln had used push button door handles on earlier Lincoln Zephyr models but the 1946-1948 Continental buttons have become hot rodder favorites. If you're looking to do something different and make a statement with your hot rod then our 1946-1948 Lincoln push button door latches are for you. These are not reproductions of the original Lincoln push button door handle but a reimagining of Lincoln's unique door push buttons and their circular button pattern in an easier to install solution that will integrate with the included door latches more easily. We have provided these push button door handles with precise latch adjustment via threaded rod end adjusters that allow infinite adjustment to meld the push button actuation with the door latch ensuring your doors easily open every time the button is pushed. Created from CNC machined aluminum and given a highly polished finish our Lincoln push button latch takes a simple 1-1/4-inch hole to mount in your door shell's skin for a surface mount solution. The button is secured by the included stainless steel mounting bracket and retaining nut. If you prefer a flush mount appearance we offer a pre-made [Frenching panel] (916032661) you can easily weld into your door skin or a custom machined [dimple die tool] (916032662) that will form the correct flush fit hole in your door skin to mount the push button latch directly. Note that these buttons are designed for push button release of your vehicle's doors (or trunk or any latching panel really) but they do not provide any form of lock functionality. You will still need to either fit a manual key lock to your door or some form of electronic lock that works off a remote control or anti-theft/remote start system.
