I am going to a couple yards tomorrow with Gremlins and will check on the rear interior pieces you need. I am about sure that there should be some that are OK but just how perfect do they need to be? The one yard may even have an older grill, must it be perfect? You can contact me direct at hallosey@xxxx

Ya I know, I have a few 74 grilles and one is NOS. But I don't have a 74 I have a 72 and 73.
Thanks anyway. What I also need would be the back plastic interior cover that goes across the back of the car and hides the tail lights and filler neck. Mine was busted up bad.
Thanks,
Davis
P.S. I think you have a pic of my original gremlin the BBO Amc Team grem owned by Bill Hallock. He has a best ET of 10.44 @ 128.5 MPH as of this year.

Sorry but the grill was on my need list also. I want to use it on
my '72. It's a shame these '70-'72 grills are so hare to come by,
while occasionaly you will come across a new '74 grill.
