Default WTB 71 GTO core support

I am looking for a good, straight, no rust, correct, core support for our 1971 GTO restoration. The one we have has already been powder coated, but it is too bent up for my liking. Any sources would be appreciated.

I know JLHarper had one. He was trying to sell off a front end as a whole, so I don't know if he ended up piecing it out or not. Worth a shot. Good luck, finding one in ANY shape is hard enough.

Try B and R Old Car Parts in Ogden. I know he has what's left of a 71 GTO, don't remember if it has a core support still on it or not. His prices seem reasonable for the most part as well.

Little known fact. There are two distinct core supports for 71 early and later. I guess the cut off is mid sept 70?
