True OEM MY '67 door handles and window cranks have a slimmer profile than the '68-'72s. One year only. Don't know about before that.
I do know Chevy cars also used the same styles.
I think the range goes beyond MY '72, but I don't know how far. The '68 handles do fit the '67s, no problem. But a '67 ''expert'' can tell 'em apart.

Interesting that Volvo was sourcing GM style parts for US-built Volvo Trucks.
Makes sense. Lots cheaper than making them in Sweden and shipping the handles here.
