1930 Commander door handles

[Guest Dunc126]

I know this is a daft question but.... how do I remove the door handles and window cranks from my 1930 Commander? I am trying to replace the windows and I can't remove the door panels without taking off the door handles and window cranks. I don't see any set-screws so I'm assuming I need to loosen something within the door? Many thanks for your help.

They are held on by brass nuts with two flats for a wrench. I have had to grind down and make thin wrenches to fit in. I think it is 9/16. if you look at ebay ad Studebaker Door Handles | eBay you can see how the nut goes in.

Thanks studerex, I was able to remove the door handles and the window cranks. By the way, the wrench needed to remove the door handle is exactly the same wrench needed to remove the cylinder head on a Cox .049 glow engine: Cox 049 051 Model Engine Tool Wrench Spanner 049 051 | eBay Makes it easy as pie!
