    Consolettes seem to be a rare & wanted item here. I have 2 very useable ones in the Parts for sale section here & haven't gotten one email on them. Are you guys dreamers or do I have them priced too high? I see them on ebay go for around a $100. What is their value???
    The Pick your Part & Pick a Part in the San Fernando Valley always have 2 or 3 rust free Mavericks in them. They're sure aren't as many as there were a few years ago.

    Fan shrouds

    I bought one of the AK fan shrouds and they are pretty crappy. They are fiberglass and the tabs have to be cut or drilled out for installation. I returned mine and got a nice one of of ebay cheaper.

    Craig, I know I can buy a new one from Auto Krafters but I would like an original. You know mine is original and thats why I would like one. But still we needed them reproduced.:)

    had two comets: 1974 4 dr in bronze IL6,and a 1976 4dr 302
    well back in 1995 when I was rebuilding mine from the ground up. hard to find parts included straight non rusted bumper supports, a perfect grill well found the grill but some asshat in the shop dropped it two part epoxy and 20 pieces later it was back in one piece. I was pissed cause it took 6months to find a perfect one. good tail lights for a comet. quarter panel extensions fiberglass ones. my list goes on but can't remember what else I had trouble finding back then.
