    Tail Panel Trim For '73 'Cuda.
    « on: February 21, 2005 - 11:30:39 AM »
    Hey all, in my continuing adventure for parts for the '73 'Cuda I'm having problems finding the tail panel trim.
    Just need the left side. (see pic)
    There is a "restored" set on e-bay, but kinda pricey.


    Thanks
    Jeff

    Rats, board keeps eating part of my post.
    Anyway, does anyone re-pop these? Or am I stuck with tracking down an original set?
    Thanks

    Repros will be out in late spring (supposedly).  I will make a post about it when I find out.  I have been awaiting the arrival of them as well.   :newsad:

    4drbrnko,
      You are also missing those BIG old bumper guards.  :grinyes: Most people hate them, but I think they look OK. You can also put on the smaller chrome ones from 70-72.

    Yep I needed those same 3 pieces when I was restoring the hardtop!  Couldn't find them anywhere so I deleted them and painted it!  But like MEK said, you can install either the big bumper guards or the chrome ones.  I choose the chrome ones!!

    Yeah 4C,

     :cry:
    I know, I like the smaller chrome ones, just haven't researched what it will take to do the switch yet.
    I would just do a chrome delete on the tail panel, but I like the look of it back there.
    With the Ralley mirrors (chrome) and the rocker panel chrome(also still need...  :gripe: ) with black on black it should look pretty cool.
    I'm still planning on getting a set of hood inserts chromed as well. for when I feel like being really flashy.  :ack:
    kinda like these:

    I am sorry for jacking the thread :angelwings: but do you need anything special to swap the 70-71 chrome bumperets to a 73 bumper, or will they bolt right on? :clueless:

    I would love to buy new trim pieces for my cuda once they are available! :bananasmi

    I found the center part new on ebay. I think Year One has it too for around $225. Luckily my outer right and left are perfect. I've seen just the outer pieces go for as high as $500.00 and more for nice ones!!! :scared:
