There's a reason for that....

Being that they're made of a less flexible plastic, mine was ruined one night by a dog running out into the road, randomly, and hitting it...

Needless to say, the dog did not live to tell the tale...

You can pick them up from Partsgeek.com for like $30....Vs. LMC Trucks $60, plus $20 oversized S & H....


I think the second one I had to buy, from PG.com was like $42 shipped...

On a totally unrelated note/topic...My newest projects...

First up, the 1969 Chevy K/10...

307 v8/4speed
3.73 gears
4x4












And then, dads' 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner Sports Coupe...

Wow Wes, that K-10 looks in bad condition, but the roadrunner seems unfixable.

Financially, the Roadrunner might be totaled but as for it being a real Roadrunner, I think I'd attempt to fix it.
