Does anyone know where I can find new front fenders for a 68' Barracuda? Thanks Currently no repros in steel, NOS is your only source for new, AAR and VFN have fiberglass fenders should you want to go that route?

Friend sold a extremely nice set of 68 fender no rust, no dents, some scrapes, for 900-1000 shipped. Sold real fast to 68 Cuda collector. That was a couple of years ago.
If seller would have waited, could have got more. But well known buyer and easy to deal with. That was extremely cheap including shipping!!!!!!!
I'm the CARETAKER of Weinstats '69 440 'cuda registry and have 104 of the 360 cars to date. 84 fastbacks/20 coupes. Always looking for new(REAL M-code) '69 440 'cudas to add to the registry so drop me a note if any are found or known. This isn't a publicly released registry. Thanks, Dave

Hopefully they went or are going on a car you own. How did they compare to NOS? IMHO, NOS sheet metal gets shelf wear and scraps. And many times there is a reason it's lingering around. Like it was a returned by a body shop back in the day for having an issue. Like made wrong without holes punched, brackets missing, other things missing. If you are buying NOS because you don't know how to pick out a good used part, beware. You might be in a similar situation all over again.

Back in the day I knew a guy that had to order SEVEN front valences for his 70 Superbee before he got a straight one.
