Great advice from MK. I went through a really hard time due to the insurance company that didn't want to pay out and mine that didn't want to stand up for my daughter and me.

If I have parts you sold me they are still in the boxes you sent them in. Make your list once insurance gives an estimate.

When you're up to it, can you itemize parts you need and what other years they can come from?
Example: Left/Right fenders (years XXXX to YYYY).

Wow, glad you are OK.
I have marker lights and maybe some other stuff if needed. When you get a chance, take a look where the rail goes into the snout section before the body mounts. I have owned and worked on several the took that kind of shot, each time the rail was kinked at or before it goes into that area. Mike H.

John. Mine was bent in both circled places on this picture. You can see the kink clearly on the up-turn from the rail, not so much on the rail it self, but it was bent "in" towards the center of the car there too. From the top looking straight down, it was clearly visible. I got you covered on marker lights. |

Sending over a pair of driver quality front wheel lip moldings. These will hold you until you come across a show quality set. The passengers side isn't that bad. With a bit of elbow grease, it might even return to almost new.

I'll keep an eye out for better ones at the car shows and swap meets over this way. Someone might have some that are better. These are rare and hard to find in any condition

Those moldings are great for refinishing, some people can make them look like new except for the anodized surface.

John has helped me out quite a bit. Getting these parts over to him is the least I can do.

Here's your grill surround. No dents one stud clip is damaged and a few scratches. I'll send that over a little bit later. I started to clean it up. Looks like it will polish out with little effort.
