Default 70-73 Firebird NOS Quarter Panels Value

Hi all,

Have chance to pickup a set of NOS GM quarter panels for 70-73 firebirds. Are they worth the $2500 asking price? I paid $1500 for a set 15 Years ago and people thought I was nuts! I am a little older now stillnutty and economy is terrible. Whats your thoughts?

Hi Brad

Not a bad price.

If you don't end up purchasing the quarter panels are you able to pass the contact details on to me? as I would be interested.

Cheers Mike

Even in today's tough times, $2500 / pair for NOS quarters is a fair deal, IMO.

Not bad if you actually need the set. If you don't, the price isn't a steal.

Some will argue that the price for the NOS ones will drop, if and when, they ever make full quality re-pops.

Default 70-73 Quarters,

I was able to purchase these and I had to pay full price but he threw in 70-73 front and rear bumpers, dash pad, valence and some other early f body items too! Thank you everyone for your input!
