I couldn't find the trunk floor assy. That's a hard website to navigate, not as bad as LKQ's but not that great either. I couldn't match up a pair of AMD quarters either darn it.

I found the trunk floor, (Challenger) both the whole floor and the split L-R parts. (didn't buy one, since I have already) No extensions though. I searched for "e-body" and "Challenger" and just scrolled through all the pages. It was a 71-74, do not know the difference from a 70.

So my techno geek cousin explained the website search issue. They are using an older platform which requires an old fashioned search style. If you search 1970 Dodge Challenger hood, you will get all items for 1970, and all items for dodge, and all items for Challenger, and all items for hood. To be specific, the search must look like "1970+dodge+Challenger+hood". The quotes and plus signs are needed. Once I did it his way, that helped immensely but of course most of the good stuff is gone now. I'll be ready next time for sure!

Interesting, that does help quite a bit.

I scored a pair of 70 cuda fenders for $598 shipped.

They were Gold Star brand, never heard of them but, they are going on a drag car that I am building, so they only have to look good from 100 ft away.

Just in time also, I was in the middle of cutting 4 fenders up to make one good set.

They had tons of Cuda stuff. If I had a 71 Cuda, I could have maxed out a credit card!

Received my trunk lid. I contacted Tamaraz and will probably file a claim with UPS. As someone who has done bodywork before, this is pretty minor stuff, but still, the customer should obtain the part in excellant condition without damage.

I'm surprised at how minimal the packaging was. The trunk is slid inside of a bubble wrap sleeve with foam corners. That's it.

Overall, ignoring the damaged parts, I'd really like to test fitment. The AMD lid "looks" to have been built well.

But well built products usually come with well-built packaging.

I still haven't received shipping confirmation on my hinges, ordered on 12/28. I guess I'll wait and see...

signsgonebye · January 09, 2019, 04:36:44 PM

I paid for parts on Dec 29th, just marked them shipped today, going to be over 2 weeks to get parts!

70 Challenger Lover · January 09, 2019, 04:47:46 PM

I'm still waiting on shipment myself. I also ordered a trunk lid and I'll be pretty annoyed if it gets damaged like yours. I've ordered from Tamraz before and they generally package everything extremely well.

kawahonda · January 09, 2019, 05:04:07 PM

I think it's AMD that packs them, unless I'm mistaken.

Sorry to see the damaged goods. Definitely file a claim. My front bumper and sill plates arrived yesterday. All in good shape and no damage. There are no foam in the packaging, just some plastic wraps and the cardboard box. I think AMD can do better in the packaging.

I received most things I ordered. Just waiting on a front valance. So far everything I received has been damage free. The rear filler piece (between rear bumper and tail light panel) was packaged in a very sturdy tube (6" dia) and the sheet metal surrounded by a lot of packing. Very well packaged. With the discount it cost $34.50.

Thanks for the the heads up on this deal Goody!

AMD ships directly to us and we have lots of problems with damage. A lot of times the carton is undamaged but the parts are damaged.
We sold a guy a flat hood for a Cuda and we had to order 3 to get a good one, flat 75 Camaro hood 4 tries. I could easily post up 20 photos of damaged AMD sheetmetal we have laying around.

I have bought a lot of non AMD stuff over the years and never had a bit of damage. I don't generally buy AMD so I'm curious now to see if the decklid I get is dinged up.
