Have you tried Richard Estermeyer who is parting out something like 15-20 
Gremlins, Hornets and Concords? He might be of help:

As for $1100 for a pair of fenders, there is a reason why (if it is who I 
think it is) anus is NOT listed in my Planet Houston Vendors list....

http://www.planethoustonamx.com/AMC_Vendors/amc_vendors.htm

if same fellow advertising rust free crap, years ago some assholes busted 
out my 78 Pacer custom woodie wagon rear glass, along with dozens of other 
people's cars parked up and down street near Gang Gardens apartments I used 
to live at in 1990s, on Halloween night.

I called this place in Arizona looking for rear glass, and he told me 'I 
have one, $280 + shipping' of whihc I jokingly replied 'for $280 let me gas 
up my Pacer wagon here in Houston and drive it out to AZ and you can have 
whole car for $280'.

I put my request for a rear glass on the amc-list and someone in of all 
places, Idaho, emailed me saying they had one for $30 + shipping, so I sent 
them payment.....imagine my amazement 2 weeks later when I get this 
glass......not only was it mint shape...but it had the factory Group 15 
Accessory heated grid on it! I never mentioned one of the few options my 
Pacer had was heated rear glass, so this was super added bonus...but I got 
big glass, with shipping, for under $100 total.

And as a AMCer, I have long memory when it comes to cars, VIN numbers, door 
tags and stuff like that. I might not remember my kid's names being a 
octodad but remember the asshole who tried to screw me in AZ back in 1990s 
and have never put him on the vendors list because of it.

You are doing what is best here, joining this group, feel free to look thru
