George, Ted Holcombe comes highly recommended from a friend, all NOS parts from defunct GM dealers. I'm looking at NOS fibre optics right now for a 1976 Fleetwood. Very nice.

Dave just also bought in addition to the fibre optics the NOS Hood release cable and hardware, I'm sure that part is common to the big cars of that era. He said it was $150. You are getting NOS GM OEM parts so definitely worth the cost in my opinion. Good luck.
Carl, i have exhausted the 74 ads on E-bay and there is nothing that i am looking for. Lots of stuff on there for my car but nothing that i actually need. Thanks.

They claim to fit the 74 - 76 Caprice & Impala. I am a little suspicious of the fit as there were differences between the 74 Caprice / 75 Bel Air-Impala style & the swept back corner style of the 75 Caprice/ 76 Impala. The originals were rubber while some made-to-order repros I have seen out of Texas were fiberglass.
I see your plastic grille has some damage. Our 74 Biscayne had a little as well. The plastic grilles, rather than take a dent, would just shatter or fracture. Hold out for an NOS 74 Caprice grille and you will do your father's memory proud!

Cam, thanks for the information. I am aware of the fiberglass filler panels and i do not like them. I have seen them on cars and they do not look right. My grill is not damaged in any way, it is just flaking paint. I may repaint the grill down the road. Cheers. George
