Re: Interior Grab Handles????
I used a old cast aluminum handle and a couple of #12 sheet metal screws. This is on my '55 2nd. The front pillar is very strong and thick I found when drilling for the screws. I only put one on the passenger side as I use the steering wheel when I get in and out the drivers side. I have a very senior friend, that I take to lunch once and a while, and he really appreciates the grab handle.You could drill and tap 1/4-20 for even more strength, But the pull is mostly in shear and the #12 screws are more than adequate.
