Which brings up something that bugs me... wear in the door hardware 
often results in handles that return to a position beyond horizontal.  
Have seen so many otherwise beautiful TR3s with their door handles 
pointing upwards an extra 30 degrees.  When you assemble the handles & 
hardware look for this condition -- snugging things up may be enough but 
I think I had to JBWeld an extra metal bit to keep that ear from 
slipping past its stop.
