Fiberglass valence?

Featured Replies

I purchased my 72 from the original owner's son in law. It had been repainted, but was pretty much unmolested. It has what appears to be a fiberglass OEM style valence, and headlight buckets. Are these typically after market or could they be OEM? I am just curious.

Aftermarket for sure. I have a complete one piece lower valence with the the corners included.

Suspect the PO had an "incident" at one time or other and had it replaced.

I figured he probably hit a racoon or a curb with it at some point. I wasn't sure because I have never seen FG valences in the after market. Must have been a long time ago. I have all the paperwork for the car. It shows the repaint due to hail damage in 1987, and the Nissan euro bumper new for $70 as a separate purchase. There is no mention of the valence, however.
