Nope.Used fronts are fairly easy to find..rears are not.Real minty non dinged fronts are not that easy either...I have probably 10 sets of fronts in stock and not one is even close to perfect.They are stainless.Not very common in NOS.

Any thoughts on what a decent drivers quality rear set should cost? I am missing the passenger rear and found a guy who may sell me a complete rear set. He hasn't decided how much he wants for it and I dont know what to expect.

I removed mine and have been driving it without any mouldings. It looks fine, but I always thought I would try to buy the missing one if I ever found one.

No one is making them as of now. The first set of rears I ever got were from Hidden Valley auto wrecking. When they cut the quarters off the car they stripped the moldings off. Then they dropped the car on them. I had to literally dig them out of the dirt and pay $50 for them. This was around 1995. The last set I bought was in Seattle around 2005. A young kid had a complete 66 500 for sale. Really wanting them bad I offered him $150 for them not knowing he only wanted $350 for the whole car. Doh! As you can see the rears are rare since they only came on 66 500s and 67 R/Ts.

I bought a set from a guy that bought out Mitchel's Motors? at the Landstar Dodge show at Atlanta Speedway in 09'. They are in Fairmount Ga.? Anyway, they have a HUGE mopar junkyard and they sold me the set for $350? One of the rears had a small dent right in the crease of the moulding. A very talented friend removed it while I watched. Amazing. Later on, I saw an NOS set on Ebay for $1,500. I have looked every year at the Nats, etc. and have never seen another set available. Metro makes the rocker moulding and I have asked repeatedly if they plan on repoing the wheel well mouldings. The answer is always the same, not enough demand.
