If you want an oval handle with a smooth look use the rear handles from a '99 buick regal, or the front ones if you also want a locking mechanism. The How-to for modern handle replacment is in the Knowledge Base.

Miata handles are frequently used. I know not why, but seem to be a favorite by many fabrication shops....maybe because the doors are thin and they fit in the older cars.

Late GM have oval handles. While your driving down the street start looking at handles on cars and see which ones you like. Then you'll know what you like and don't like
