71 Cuda grilles parts needed - small clips

[tuff340GranCoupe]

Does anyone have a junk grille they are 'parting'? I need the clips that hold the 'C' trim in place. I would to find just 2 more. Found a few at the Nats but nobody had them new either! Do you have just 2 maybe, OR do you have a 71 Challenger grille that for parts maybe? I was told these also hold the center chrom inserts in.

I JUST NEED 2 OF THESE NOW!

Tom at R/T Specialities has had them made and sells them. You could also try Metro 'cause they obviously have them for their grills

There were 2 kinds used. Depending on if it was a replacement grille or OEM.

I recently replaced mine.

I found that the one's I bought at ACE hardware were more user friendly than the square one's. I did try both when re assembling.

Seriously, I cannot believe I am still looking for at least 2 clips that hold the INNER 'C' trim on a 71 Cuda grille. I am in process of finishing my 71 grille & I need 2 of these clips! I know someone has at least 2 of them. If you have a busted 71 Cuda grille, take them out & let me know. I was told that the 71 Challenger grille has these same clips holding the center trim in as well. Take 10 minutes & go out to your parts car broken grille & fish a couple of these out so a nice grille can be shown off.
