I have seen them individually sold on Ebay, but not by vendors. Usually all I see are the sets...though someone in our vendor list might sell them one by one.

Default I might have one for you

I may have an "R" left from my '73. When I bought it, the PO gave me his spare parts, and some letters were in the box. I will check this weekend, when I go home and let you know.

One of the guys in my club needs a "C". I am taking it to him at the meeting Sunday.

You could buy the whole set and sell the spare ones individually on eBay. I'm sure you'd easily make enough to pay for the one you need.

I did...kind of. They won't fit in the script holes that are molded into the rear bumper...but they work great on the flat bumpers if you first remove the old emblems and fill the old holes.

Actually no, that's a few weeks old...close to a month old. Last week it was storming and it was canceled. Tomorrow might be nice though. Check the picture link under my avatar tomorrow afternoon.
