Thanks Mr. Bill W.

Question on your 66-67 SS cars.
Are your Original door lock knobs plastic or metal.

All the factory knobs on 65,66,67 GTO’s were always plastic.
Some seem to think they were chromed metal knobs.
In 1967 the top of the knob was a little larger.

I'm guilty of using the "coat hanger key" a few times myself, it always worked. Love that gorgeous red interior, I can smell it from here!

Chris, '66/'67 Chevelle lock knobs are plastic, molded to match the interior color. Original knobs, especially colored ones, (not black) are prized because repro's are chrome plated and have a larger diameter barrel. If repro's are painted interior color interference with the clear plastic grommet will scrape the paint.

Here is a pic of my coat hanger rash, self inflicted after locking the keys inside fifty five years ago. - Bill W
