RE: quick question?

Your can get a fiberglass front end for just about anything. Shouldnt be too much work, even if you go to a junk yard and get the front end off a diff year.

RE: quick question?

If you find one at a junk yard then it wouldn't be that bad, if not then a ton of money for parts. http://www.classicindustries.com/ Another thing you can do is to paint the bumpers to color match the body,then it will look like the 78-81 cars.

RE: quick question?

You would have to replace both rear quarters, and rear body panel + inner and outer valance panels, as well as the bumpers and lights. about a grand in parts and 4 in labor.
