WTB '69 Front Valance

Post by JLsKA »

Would prefer minimal rust, good condition... or even fiberglass, although, I've never seen one.
Thx, James

While the one below says is is for 70-73, I would give them a call to find out what the difference is. I would suspect there is none, but it is a starting point:

There is also this fiberglass one:

Good luck!

the 68 and 69 pl510 has a smaller marker light over the 70-73

I do have a 68/69 valance with lots of paint...... whats under it ...? but shipping would be like $70ca + the $40ca for the part...... :|

Hey, RMS...Yeah, I currently have the mismatch of my original '69 lights with the '70+ fiberglass valance from Troy Ermish.
I regret tossing the old valance, after an accident... I'll think about your offer and PM, if interested... thanks!

Do you know if the 70-73 light assemblies can swap out with the '69, without mods? If so, then I'll get the FutoFab steel valance.

Yes, that's what mine currently looks like...funky.
Does anyone know if the late model front turn signal lights (with sockets) can replace the '69s, with minimal mods?
Thanks!

I gave it to RMS. I think i5 would take a bit of work to salvage that one.
If no one from the future comes back to stop you from doing it then how bad of a decision can it really be?
