Does anyone know if there are any plans for AMD (or anyone) to repop A body 'cuda fenders?

Does anyone know of a place that might actually have some?

Nope, sure haven't heard any word on this. I think someone repops fiberglass fenders but I don't think that is what you are looking for. Heck, I would be happy if they just made the trunk extensions.

No, not looking for fiberglass. We finally got my fenders completely stripped, and I found out why they had about 1/2" of bondo all over them. They had been patched in several places on the top and inner sides along the inner fender lip with such bad metal fabrication that they are really unusable/unsavable.

I believe there are plans in the future. Between myself and a friend(he was talking to AMD) we have most metal that they could use to repop needed parts. Fenders, coupe and fastback full quarters, trunk extentions, ect. But the talks ended for some reason??? I'll have to get ahold of him and find out.


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

I got a lead on a pair of '67 fenders. Other than the marker light and the badging, are there any other differences from the '68 fenders?

Yes, but it is small.

The parking light is different and they do not have the tab for the grill surround in the center of the surround...

Other then that I think they are the same.

Any update? Some a hole in a Camaro at the track opened his door on my right front, now I need another one. Would rather have a pair. Anybody have any suggestions?

Just keep searching. I was lucky enough to have found a set of '69 fenders that were close to mint. I have had them straightened and set in epoxy primer. They just sit on a shelf until such time as they are needed.
