Thank you, everyone. As far as where all these handle are from, the seller is from the USA and were purchased here as well. All evidence on the handles leads me to believe that they were tooled here, as they match up well the the 80s handle that I have. Usually, when something goes overseas for reproduction, the tooling changes. For example, the license light lenses that are being remade bear a new stamp: They no loger say L67 GUIDEIT they now say L67 GMIT and the packaging says made in China. The door handles still say USA.

Off to work.
