I bought a disassembled 70 SS which came with many NOS parts. Part of this is a pair of NOS fenders and NOS Cowl Induction hood. The restoration I am doing is fairly original but not a # matching queen. I have been thinking of selling these and buying much cheaper Goodmark replacements. What do you guys think? I have no experience with these Goodmark parts, will they fit as well? How much are the NOS parts worth? Any thoughts?????

Thanks.....

I don't know where you live but I could be intrested in those if you are close for me to pick up these items?

Nothing fits like NOS. Not sure on the Goodmark stuff. If it does not matter to you then use what ya got.
If you do want to sell and get reproductions do a search in the parts for sale and see if anyone has posted NOS fenders and the asking price to get an idea. Here is are a few ads I found: http://www.chevelles.com/ads/parts/messages/17174.html

Take what ya got and put er together.....Drive like a madman with a purpose........

I remember as a young man the police stopping me in my 375hp./bench 69 SS(at every single sighting of me out in my car)just to get me to keep it off the streets and give me a ticket for sumthin.

16 yrs old with a manuel steering car and a 4:10 or 11 Posi.(does it matter?)in uncontroled sideways motion all the way down the steet.DAMN I loved that car.Lost my license 3 yrs cause of that kinda fun.

Hope this little story makes you just want to put it together and GET IT http://www.chevelles.com/forum/biggrin.gif
