Shelby Gt-500 Inside Door Handles
I had a Customer Asking about Purchasing the Interior Door Handles from a Gt-500. They are Identical to the IUP Black Inside Door Handles Except the Silver Pull Handle Has a Glossy Finish vs the Matte Silver on the IUP Cars. I looked up the part in the Parts Catalog and the Part Number was the Same as The IUP Handle so I knew I had an Issue. Next I ran a BOM Which Lists all the Components of a car as Built using my Gt-500 Vin. It still Showed the Regular IUP Handle as the Service Part. At this Point it Meant Either Ford had a Catalog Issue or your Replacement Handle would Not match your Original. I sent an Inquiry to Ford and it Seems this part was overlooked and Never Assigned a Part Number. At this Point Ford Is Looking into Creating a Part Number to Service this Item. At the Present to Get a GT-500 Inside Door Handle you have to Purchase a Complete Door Panel. I doubt Ford Will leave it like That as it will cost them Big time under warranty if a Door Handle goes Bad. This is one of Many Mustang Parts Issues I have brought to Fords Attention and Helped to Correct They Should Send Me a Spiff once in awhile! LOL!

I will update when Ford Supplies a Part Number.
