Default 1970-73 tailpanel repop

I spoke to a well known vender last week who was looking seriously into getting the '70-'73 tailpanel repopped. One of the hangups is trying to guage the demand for this. He is concerned since he will be putting up the money to get it done and have to give up an NOS panel to be used as a model for the tooling. He figures if there is enough demand to do a run of at least 500, the price could be around $300-$400. If not, a smaller run would make the price much higher. If the demand isn't there, it likely wouldn't be done, at least by him.

On the surface, it seems like a high demand product, however, only about 100 of the '74-'78 tailpanels have been sold so far. Those appeared to be high demand at the time they were done too.

He doesn't frequent these boards much, but I mentioned I would put a post out there to get some feedback. Also, I am adding a poll to try to get a count of how many here need one and would be buyers assuming it is a correctly done, high quality product. Vote each time for each panel you would need (if you need more than one).
