1967 chrome door lock knobs

[RS3SDL2MG]

I ordered new reproduction door lock knobs for my 67 but when I got them they are plastic  I have a pretty good set of used one's now but would like a new set or NOS set that are metal like the original one's , anybody know where I can find some ? I have searched ebay and all they have are the cheap plastic one's ,,

Correct me if I am wrong, but all 67 door lock knobs were plastic. I still have to original black ones on my car.   ned

mine are metal , the plastic one's are made the same but the original ones on my car are metal ?

The colored ones were plastic but maybe the chrome ones were metal

As for Camaro's, I have a 67 RS/SS with deluxe interior and the knobs "still original" are chrome plastic, I also have a 67 RS with the standard interior and the knobs are black plastic, have a 68 CST pickup and the knobs are chrome plastic, growing up we had a top of  the Chevy line 69 Caprice and it had chrome plastic knobs. If there was a supplier that Chevy used that produced any in metal we will need more of them to come out of the woodwork, personally I have never seen such an animal, but when I do I will let ya know, ya all chime in here. genminmar

mine are metal , I found an old 67 impala sitting in a field and it had the door's still on it the lock knobs were no good but they were metal , I have an extra 67 door or two up in the loft and again the lock knobs are pitted and not any good but they are metal , I have yet to see a 67 plastic one other than the new repros I ordered ,,,

Yip,Yip,Yip!        I dont know who they outsourced these from but we will be on the lookout in the future, looks like a two piece part with the stem being formed and then a cap sealed around the top. Any others with an OEM car with the originals should certainly respond here!

[RS3SDL2MG]

yes the metal one's are two piece , the top cap is crimped on tight ,

Just an FYI.... National Parts Depot (NPD) carries both the metal and plastic ones.
I bought the metal ones; they are solid (not 2 piece).

I am sitting here looking at my NPD book and they do not list the metal 67 lock knob's , they only list the 68 up one's
they list a 67 repro part #C-10559-1A but I am gonna assume they are plastic ?

[77thor]

OOPS... my bad.
I assumed they were all the same for 67 thru 69.
