I restored a 71 GTX back in the early 90's. There was almost no reproduction parts back then. I spent a lot of time tracking down NOS parts for it. The car was EB3 Blue with a B5 blue interior. It had two fender tags and two window stickers. I thinks about 22 options in all. I sold the car in 1997 at what would be today called a "give away price" 'Glacial Blue' is a rare one in the '71 GTX world... Only a little over 60 sprayed that color... Blue interior-less than 300... Did mine in the early 90's, too... Very little out there... And a lot of the re-pop of today I ain't hearing good things about...

The 71 I once owned had the very rare for a GTX, A35 Trailer Towing Package and the L42 Headlamp Time Delay w/Warning Signal options. I just corrected my earlier post. I was looking at the broadcast sheet and the correct paint code is GB2

How difficult are tail lite bezels to find nowadays? The tail light lenses are available now although the ones I have seen have the black paint like the base models had. But I haven't seen the bezels in repop. The dash emblems are difficult to find just like the dash panels and knobs. The panel behind the driver's rear wheel and the tank behind it are also hard to find in usable condition.
The list goes on and on.
Master, again and still

Front elastomeric w/applique...
Backlight louvers...
A/G hood...
10k should procure all three... As far as the front rubber bumper applique, Gene Gregory was making a fine repro of that, but Gene's pretty much done with the biz, I heard at first he was going to keep the rubber bumper making part of the biz, but Tommy Chyrco has that now, I don't know if he is going to do the 71 B body bumpers, or just stick to the E body line for now? AirGrabber hood repro stuff is out there, some good, some bad, depends on the vendor and what you need? but at least somethings available Back light louvers, if you want originals, yeah pony up $3-$4K for a set when they're available, or repros, I heard Gene Gregory sold off his factory mold and the current producer is "re-tooling" and any new sets will be fetching $2K I still offer my rear window repros for $850 tooled off originals, next year they're going to $950 due to costs, but this year I'll honor the $850 price for those who have already contacted me for a set Mike

@ Diego... Yes. The car was a fairly high optioned. AC/PS/PDB/PW/AMFM-cassette/hood turn signals..numbers matching engine/trans/rear. They just changed the colors was all. Hmmm. That's disturbing. How many vendors make fender tags?? I only know of one.
