Traditionally, you can use the "Rag Trick" to pop those handles off...assuming that Mr T. uses the same handles as came on 55s & 60s etc.
(Rag Trick: slide the long edge of one of your thinnest shoprags under the handle, holding the rag by the corners, slide it all the way down to the hub end, alternately pull on each of the two corners of the rag you're holding...You're trying to snag one or both of the ends of the "C" shaped springy clip that goes through two slots in the handle and fit into a groove on the regulator. While pulling the rag side to side, also pull it outwards gently.)
If I am correct in my assumption, you'll be surprised at how easily this works.

there is spring clip on the handle shaft. I just take a small flat head screwdriver and go in between the handle and the door card and 'flick' the clip out.
Also note that when you remove the door handle once you have undone the screw you have to slide the whole handle unit forward before pulling it way from the door.
