I think Len waited a little long to capitalize on his stash of parts.....I don't think he'll get his asking price on this grill anytime soon.....I hope I'm wrong for his sake.... https://www.kijiji.ca/v-other-auto-parts-and-accessories/guelph/1970-baracuda-aar-grille/1332712786  Check out his other ads as well, lots of E Body parts coming out of hiding...

 :yes:  I think those prices are gone for now.  Still a cool part that a lot of people would like to own, but it's going to be hard to get that much.   :alan2cents:

Even at Canadian dollars, it's pretty high.
Lenny is our resident Mopar hoarder and has been collecting parts and cars since the beginning of time.....He's been at every local Mopar swap meet for as long as I can remember, usually selling something that most people consider junk, while always saving the best parts for himself....

He must be onto a big purchase and trying to raise money, or just simply getting tired of the whole hobby....
Members @YYZ and @mccannix can attest to it...they've known him longer then me...

Well I did stall because I thought the price was high.  And can't drive to New York.

What do you think the value is for this black nos aar gran coupe m46 grill?

I would buy a reproduction one from BE&A before I would spend anywhere near that kind of money on 47 year old plastic.....but that's just me...

Beware of NOS AAR grilles, I have never seen one that was actually injected black plastic and not a grey grille painted black right from Chrysler.  Chrysler ran out of black plastic grilles towards the end of the AAR production and was painting grey grilles black for them.

Thanks for the warning.

then wouldn't gray grills painted black be "correct" for late production AARs?  :dunno:


Brads70

some  of his other parts are priced ok , like the consoles etc....

anlauto

The burnt orange console is priced decent for a 70, the other broken up ones for $125 is a bit optimistic  :alan2cents:
