Martin,
I believe so. It's been quite a few years since I've seen any. And no old enough cars at pick a part to go look at.

I'll mention this to a friend of mine that goes to a salvage yard frequently that has lots of old L-bodies. It is around 100 miles one way for me to drive, otherwise I'd make the trek. Do you have a picture that you can post so I can send to this guy? Many times it's tough to figure out what year some of these cars are. A visual aid would be best. I'm assuming front and rear are the same?

L-bodies, I'll try again to find a pic. Every time I look I just come up with the regular style handles. They look pretty much the same from what I remember but they are stationary/can't be pulled up and have a "paddle" on the back to open the door by. I only need a pair as I'll be retrofitting them to my Rampage.

Not mine, but looks like what you are wanting.

Ya that's them... hoping for a cheaper set -used- to save some money. If no one finds a set in the next couple weeks, I'll hit that guy up from the "Bay."

Thanks 83Rampage!

Is there a difference between these and ones off an '83?

83's are different. My Rampage has the same style of door handles as a later Omni/Shelby Charger. Only difference is the black insert.
