I've got a locking door handle for a 37 truck and I have the driver side handle as a set. Both complete but need to be re chromed. The actual face on the lock it self shows some wear, but works well. It locks and unlocks fine with a key. Let me know if you are interested and I can send pictures to you.

In case anyone else is looking for a set too, there is a listing on e-bay for a '37 truck. I saw it 3/10/08. A recent locking handle sold on e-bay for $168.00 as I recall.

The set on EBay right now is a set with an incorrect identification. Those handles in that listing are not the correct handles for a 37-38 truck and, it appears, the shafts are not the correct length.

You may be correct. In looking more closely at those and comparing them with Old Blues handles it appears the e-bay items may have a double raised line in the casting as compared to a single. I can't tell from their photo for certain how long the shafts are.

Right, 37Blue - the double raised lines are not 35-38 Chevrolet truck. Also the shape of the handle in front of the lock, the short side, is not the same. Of course, I couldn't measure the shaft lengths, but in comparing the picture of those on EBay and the correct handles I have in my possession, the shafts do not seem the correct length proportionately speaking.
