Question
where can i find door handle ,turn signal lenses,engine rebuild parts for 1954 Chrysler New Yorker

Answer
Your best bet is to contact a chrysler car club.  The big one I know about is the Walter P. Chrysler club.  I couldn't find it with a quick search of the net, but I'm sure it is there.  Look for it.  Also, try ebay.  The WPC club published a book on where to get parts years ago, but I can't find the copy I had.  If you are around Detroit, Mich this summer, the dream cruise we have will have all kinds of chrysler cars and people there.  
I am a Model A guy, so I can't give you a better answer.
I found it.  Go to
http://www.chryslerclub.org/

And go from there.
Good luck.
