68 Barracuda Fastback small hand cranks for rear window?

[Stumpy]

Going through the 68 Barracuda fastback I just bought and one of the rear window hand cranks is busted. On this car the rear cranks are smaller than the fronts.

Easy enough to find on the interwebs I said.

Boy was I wrong. The interwebs is telling me all the cranks are the same size.

I put a front on the back and it sticks way out and your hand gets in the way of the armrest when cranking. And it just looks wrong.

So what's the deal? Are they supposed to be smaller on the back and where the heck do I find a pair of the smaller ones?

Well those arm rests are not from a 68 Barracuda for one thing!

Looks like an early base 64-65?

Looks like it. Not the only early A part on it.

Those are wing window cranks for and early c-body. I have some but they are not correct for your car. I used them for the front when the car has a roll cage and the long style would not work.

That’s probably it.

I also don’t believe that the handle knobs were black in 68, I believe those are from a 70 and later car.
