Default Free 68 GTO left front fender and valance

I've got a poor condition 68 GTO/Lemans right front fender and an even sadder (bent up but not too rusty) valance panel if anyone wants to pick them up for free. Hate to chuck them in the recycling bin.

I'm in upstate NY, Saratoga/Albany area.

Thanks for offer. Too far for me but I like to save these (assuming you have the space to store them) because the gauge of the metal and the various crowns etc on the panels make for a nice source of metal to repair rusted out spots.

I would save them but to be honest I doubt if I'll ever be doing restoration work on a 68/69 again. Wish I had a spare left side, the one I have is very rough, it's had major repair work in the past.

My Valence is 'glass. The metal valences are easy to hammer-dolly into nice when not rusted. I will be in the Finger Lakes (Bully Hill ) soon. Is that close?

That's the other side of the Finger Lakes from me, probably 3 hours away, so quite a drive.

I bought a repop valance since they seem to have decent reviews. I'd have easily 12 hours into fixing the old one if it's even possible.

Agree, my valance was a bang up mess. My metal guy was able to make it like new.
