    Can anyone identify any of these parts? They came out of my '68 Handi-Van.

    Link to picture of parts: http://www.mediafire.com/view/6z6a28wy6rcfqom/image.jpeg

    Thanks for looking.

    Thanks Twinpilot001,

    I should have mentioned that most of these parts were just laying around loose on the floor when I bought my van so it's not surprising that most of them wouldn't be original. However, the part, 2nd row down from the top, 2nd part in on the left:

    was laying at the bottom of the inside the drivers side door. And the part, 3rd row from the top, 3rd part on the right:

    fell on the floor below the radio while I was cleaning! I only heard it fall so I don't have any idea where it came from.

    The first part, http://goo.gl/qgvZFG , looks like part of the door stop rod that catches the front door from opening to far. Must have broken off and fell in the bottom of the door.

    The last part on the right of second row is a sunvisor clip that attaches close to the rearview mirror at the top of the windshield, the sunvisor rod rest in it.

    My door catch mechanism on the drivers side is missing. Is the door stop rod mystery piece part of the door catch?

    That's what it looks like to me. Maybe someone can show you a pic of a complete rod.
