I was looking for an answer to a parts question, and one of my choices was this forum!

Thanks for the reply! Most importantly some patch panels around the engine bay where it burned. I'll take some pics and post it here asap, but I haven't had much luck searching. I dont think it comes with the package tray panel. The very top outer edges of the firewall, and the part that the hood brackets bolt to the body is paper thin. and the very rear edge of the body where the driprail stops. I am also on the hunt for some wide 5 wheels, and a window crank with ivory knob, wire loom, trim, and any old beat up accessories like breezies, curb feelers, bug deflector, etc.. I have some cash for parts, but im going to a swap saturday so I may be broke afterward lol!

Oh! and definitely headlight assemblies with lenses, mine were switched to a cali style that i can't stand. Just hate to put new stuff on the car if I can find it used!

Thanks again!
Ryan

Thanks bud! I do need that, I'll have to look again. The real bad bit is way up in the corner of the engine bay. Im thinking donor myself, or just make a patch since it isnt really in a noticable area.
