Rare spares has them but fiberglass which is no good for a original restore.
Second hand would be nearly impossible as they are all rusted out.

What about one of the hotrod guys that make panels from scratch like the guy that runs Streetneat in QLD?
If you find someone maybe we could have a group buy,I would be interested.

be interested.
Les said that rare spares tried to make them in steel and couldn't get it right so they just stuck with the fiberglass.

I picked up a mint lc 4dr for $1200.(except damaged rear quarter)
Unpicked the both guards and apron in one piece, slid it off and straight onto my other car.

That front is mint very hard to find like that, I remember the 90's you could pic them up a whole car in top condition $150..
Nothing like genuine parts..

The whole car is an excellent score, the trim is unmarked except for a small crack on the drivers seat, the seat belts still have the black holden emblem clearly seen on all except for drivers.
The doors trims have that wood look on them(only chrome pealing) along with the dash cluster and lower panel.
I'll slowly sell off all the bits soon.
I dont know if holden planned it but it was so easy to take the whole front off in one piece.
When you disect the car you can see how it was spot welded together as seperate panels.
