Door panel removal

[lnirenberg]

I am trying to remove the door panel from my '61 Bel Air and the only thing I can't figure out is how to get the vent window and door handle off. I see no set screw or rear clip.

There is a horseshoe shaped clip on the back. They sell a tool to push the clip off or you can use a small hook shaped tool to pull it out. I don't have any pics to show but maybe someone else does and will post them.

Take a rag and wrap it between the handle and the door panel, turn the crank a little and it should pop off the clip.

This is the tool you need. They are sold at any Auto Parts Store. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260373453217&viewitem=
