[QUOTE=PontGuy;4388647]I found it a whole lot more challenging to find good Lemans-specific parts than GTO equivalents. The valence, grills, front running lamps, etc. are not re-popped. Luckily I was able to chase down NOS Lemans badges for the ones that are not being reproduced. Even parts like door latches- nobody lists them for a 69 Lemans and I discovered that mine were different than for a GTO. I found out by trial and error that 69 Chevelle latches fit perfectly though.


I would have to agree! My 68 lemans too with the front valence,rear bumper, bumper brackets no repops.I just put my new rear bumper on and new tailights. They don't even make the taillight lense gasket for lemans but they make it for the gto. So maybe it is easier to get gto parts than it is to get lemans.
