  Bought  a rear 70 challenger from tear one. Not  too bad plating and fit was really good. I cleared the inside for protection.  Forgot the bolts.  Local  bolts are rounded chevy crap.  I meant year one.  Bad typing.

ps,  Buy some vasoline, they get u real good on shipping.  Would have been cheaper to drive up from tampa.

I bought a front one quite a while ago. The fit was good, the chrome was fair, and the final metal smoothing was not great. It looked like somebody used a sander on it before they sent to the chromer. Small sander marks in certain areas.

if they are anything like the HORSESH*T AAR Cuda re-pop fiberglass hoods, that I had gone through two of and still have horrible quality merchandise, I'd say no... I quit shopping year one quite some time ago...

Oh yeah.. I forgot to mention. It took 3 months before I finally got it.  :faint:

take the time, shop around, and you'll find that they are one of the most expensive parts companies out there! You can save a lot of money at other places...ESPECIALY on things like carb/ brake booster rebuilding, wiper motor refinishing etc..I'm sure it goes for most of everything in the catalogs....I do give them props for carrying pretty much everything...but please check around for another place...or you WILL go borke!  :crying: :icon16: :screwy:
