73-76 Duster repro taillight bezels?

[player1up]

Does anyone have any info on when or IF there will be anyone reproducing the taillight bezels for the late dusters? The prices for decent used ones is astounding, I saw some on ebay that went for over 200 EACH.

I haven't heard anything around here...........

Yeah, too bad that if repros are made they'll probably be $400-$500 per set. As far as your question, I don't know, I'm in the same boat as you looking for a good deal on some servicable used ones.

I don't think you're going to find them. I searched for repro bezels for my 73 Dart Sport, and no one had anything for the later models. I ended up buying used bezels and have them reconditioned. They turned out great, but were costly when it was all said and done.

I wonder when the aftermarket is going to get in gear and start making more repro parts for A-Bodies? Right now, everything seems to be targeted to the high-dollar Cudas and Challengers.

yeah they will probably wait till the A-bodies are high dollar... we are in for a loooonngg wait

it's funny how values go up and down. I was looking on ebay last winter for a duster and prices seemed high - now this winter they're low.

I wound up buying a 71 Camaro - it was horribly boring with the automatic trans, but it was a numbers matching car so it got flipped pretty fast.

I've got the 71 Duster project going hot and heavy right now and that's consuming my time, but a friend called me about a local Hemi Charger he saw for sale - been sitting for months and the price keep going down - perhaps xmas is the time to make an offer.

Yeah it's a shame that nice ones are expensive and repro's will be very expensive when they come out. I bought a nice restored set on Ebay several years for under $100 taking a chance on their quality. They were very nice if not show quality.
