Exactly.

If it's a such a great money maker go put your money with your mouth is.

I just provided a small economics lesson.

1971 Charger R/T bulge hoods. Those can be used to fit til 1974, and a separate press can be used to make the insert hole for ramcharger fresh air for and louvered insert, or no hood hole for 1972-1974 models. If AMD were to calculate how many of the chargers were made from 1971-1974, it would probably be the highest b-body production body make at the time.

Demon, you need to look in the mirror. This "Armchair Expert" HAS invested into and made reproduction parts. I know how much it costs and how easy it is to lose money on reproducing something for a TINY market. Have you walked a mile in those shoes? Until you have you might want to slow your roll on the abusive comments towards others.

Scott,

Stop it.

This is a "lamp rubbing" party. Any minute now the AMD Genie is going to pop on here and grant every posters wish.

Don't try bring up Economics, sound Business Practices or Economics of scale. That's "crazy talk".

Also don't ask anybody here to actually go do any work to find parts or pay fair market value. That's more "crazy talk"

Morty

Well ya never know, the NOS stock probably rotted to a layer of rust sitting on the dealers shelves, just like the cars rotted as soon as they left the assy line...

If they made a repo buldge hood (amd I won't buy from any one else) for a r/t. Especially if air grabber. I'd deff think very hard about buying one and adding to the 71 reg charger we have now

Trunk lids for 3rd Gen chargers. As most have rust

Full quarter and front fenders for 73-74 satellite/road runners
Lower 1/4s for 73-74 chargers

Off topic but I'd love to see someone repop 1970 Charger grilles. You never know when you'll catch a bird or road shrapnel to the face.

I really can't believe the lack of support for Dodge Trucks of any vintage.

I don't need quarters for a 70 Coronet as I prefer to have original sheetmetal cars but I would be happy to know those are out there in case of an accident or whatever

Actually there's some stuff out there, you really have to look, the early Sweptline stuff is the hardest to find, but the 72 and up stuff is slowly coming out, LMC recently released some goodies, depending on the years you might be interested in?

Wow . . . so many comments, yet not ONE, about C Bodies !!! . . . yes, there is big following (pun intended) for the full size mopars !!! But if you need sheet metal, you are left looking for best of the worst out there . . . But the C body group, is most possibly the "thrift-iest" of the mopar crowd !!!

I have had C body cars for years, well before my A body, and now B body . . . was AMAZED at how much was available for my 70 Sport Satellite when I decided to go ahead with that car. Especially coming from my C body experience . . .

As all have said, it comes down to the economics . . . good luck with your projects !!

Cheers

Mark
