Dude, that sucks.  I take it they never found who did it?  About the only extra parts I have is a couple turn signal housings.  Post a list of what you need and I also will keep my eye open.

I can send you the side trim pieces that go on the door/fenders. They're off my '74 wagon and I wont be using them. They're not "mint" because most of the chrome applique has peeled off, but they're better than what you have now (and the chrome applique is fairly easy to redo).

I wish I could help with the wheel-well chrome pieces, but both of those pieces on the passenger side were junk on Poison Pinto.

I also have a driver's-side turn signal cover for the grille and a scoping antenna (although it's broken at the top, so you may not want it).

The only good thing I can see coming from this (outside of fresh paint) is showing people how tough our lil horses really are. look at all that damage & it DIDN'T blow up! most people would assume just hitting our horses would cause the dreaded explosion!

I feel for ya skratch it's a bad thing to go thru. I don't understand why we can't get stated value insurance on our cars thru a "regular" carrier
