Default Need fiberglass tail light panel for a 72 coupe

Like the title states, need a nice, complete, unrepaired tail light panel for a 72 coupe. Would like a nice original part. Also might need a pass quarter panel, or at least the rear section of one as I'm not sure I can repair mine. Let me know what you have and if possible send or post pictures and prices.
Thanks,
Chris

I have these from a 69, they are not perfect and have cracks here and there, and need glass work in some areas, but they could be repaired and re used..

Thanks Darren, but I would like to find one that needs less work.
Still looking though...

This one is complete except for the tab that hides behind the rocker molding.

Have to ask...what's the story on this body? Is it that far gone that it's only good for parts?

Curious,

Lee

Boy, it sure would be a shame to cut that one up. That being said, if enough people want parts, I'll help out with the tail lamp panel and the pass quarter panel. Keep me posted....of course that also depends on how much damage happens during tear down.
Thanks, Chris

except for a crack in the RH fender from the front end sagging the body is pretty good, bottoms of both doors are clean but both windshield posts are rotten....it`s an original 454" LS-5 4spd, with a "W" in the VIN, comes with the title if someone is looking for a project

WOW...man, that would be awesome to tuck away for a rainy day project. Wish I had the $$ to even make an offer. Thanks for filling me in, sir.

Dreaming,

If it has a "W" in the vin, it's a 1972 body.
