Interesting. I guess they took a short break from reproducing A body parts.  Too bad they are not interested and/or willing in making the parts that are truly needed and wanted for our cars. Like roof skins..... Bumpers were not really needed. Cores are plentiful and relatively cheap. Everything I have read about repro bumpers (for other Mopars) is that they do not compare well to re-chromed originals. |

True. I'm just happy they are reproducing more 3rd gen parts. Now, if only they would reproduce the 73/74 full quarter panels.

Huh. I didn't see that one coming. Yeah....that was basically what I was thinking. Don't get me wrong, I am thankful for what they do reproduce for our cars. I simply think their "market research" is terribly flawed on many levels. A good example of their flawed research....is that they went ahead and reproduced elastomeric bumpers for 70 cudas. If they would have instead tooled to do 71 bumpers, they could have killed 2 birds with one stone....as a 71 bumper could be trimmed to make a 70. board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=8123706&Main=8121866 |

Need R/T doors Think AMD ever reads stuff like this? ? Nope, they are too busy reproducing parts for A bodies.  A fact I find completely puzzling. When I first started JY'ing to make money in the early 2000's.....I would run across A bodies with pretty good regularity. Particularly 73-76 models. I quickly came to the realization that there was virtually no money to made on those cars. (there are a few exceptions) Rust free sheet metal I had bought was given away for free. Yet, for some reason AMD dove into them hard and heavy. Made no sense to me then...makes no sense to me now. If the used parts were not in high demand, resulting in high used prices.....why would any company reproduce them? |
