I have a pair of NOS, never mounted front fenders for a 66 or 67 Acadian. These also fit 66 Nova.
Yes, they are out of the boxes and no I don't have the boxes. I bought them in Texas and they had to be removed from the boxes to fit in the car on the ride home. The date stamp on them is 1993, the GM part number sticker is still on them.
I have about 1500 dollars invested in these and am looking to recover my investment, as I have seen a number of them sell for that and more in some cases.
Please don't post on here telling me I'm crazy to want that much. I realize at that price they are not for everyone but I checked on ebay and see Goodmark fenders at $1,000 pair. I know which I'd choose if I was restoring a car, for that extra 500 bucks.
Asking $1500 for the pair but I will say right away that $1300 will NOT buy them!
If you wish to look at them, I need some advance warning so I can get them from where they are stored.
I should add, free delivery to Winnipeg. Possible delivery to Regina or at least a good part of the way, and a possibility of delivery to Calgary/Lethbridge area if you are patient.

Price is right.If I had a car that needed them I would jump on them.Try to find NOS stuff these days.When you count the time it lakes to make the repro stuff fit.These are CHEAP.
Haaa..."Do you have the boxes?" ... email of the day! You've still got it Carl!
Re the price, certainly fair! Good luck with it.

i have a NOS pair of 67 firebird fenders hanging on the wall...and that's the price I've asked for them. I had a guy that had to have them....but he just would not step up...
I'll bolt them on my car before I'll take less.

If I had the type of car these fenders fit, I'd buy them. Imagine all the time and money they would save, not to mention the fit and finish!

Exactly. When I see $500 for a Goodmark, a body shop at $50 an hour spends 5 hours making a Goodmark equivalent to an NOS fender (NOT!), these are not out of line.
That is why I was happy to pay it when I had plans to use them.

Those novas have horrible fender to door issues at the best of times, if you are building a nova/acadian, you need these, dont ask any questions, just buy them.

Thats a fair price,just installed a pair of 66 chevelle goodmark fenders on a customers car after it took nearly 10 hours each to get a perfect fit and the metal is still thinner than originals,so buy em fast.
Deposit received this afternoon from a CP member, so we'll call these sold.
Thanks again, Canadian Poncho for keeping me from having to put them out there for the Kijidiots!
I didn't have to take trades either, such as noted above----- " and do you take trades? i have a boat, skidoo, tent trailer, riding tractor, spare dog"

How times have changed. I bought brand new OEM 67 Nova fenders when I had my 66 Nova SS for only $77.00 each. I wish I kept all my Nova stuff. I think it was in 1974.

I bought new fenders for my 66 around 1981 I think it was. Seems to me by then it was about 160 bucks each. I have the bill here somewhere still I think.

I bought new ones for my 67 beaumont in 1994 for $328 each - list was $527 but I was working in their bodyshop at the time - I was surprised to see the ink stamped date of july 1993 on the inside, guess the storey goes GM sold the dies to aftermarket companies and GM would get the first 1000 pressed, then of course aftermarket would continue producing as the dies stretch the fit gets worse and/or lesser quality metal - I'm told the older the better for over the counter parts - often what was left in the 90's was just previous returns, after I sold my 67 beaumont - I easily sold my fenders for $900 for the pair in 2001
The fenders just left for their new home, where a CP member lives!
Picked up and out of here by about 8:30. I'm not the only CP member who gets an early start but by the time he got here, I'd already shot a skunk (concerned it was rabid, hair falling out, scrawny looking), been to town to pick up the mail, bought some baking, washed the car... I STILL have a whole day ahead of me!
Sure can't shake this nasty cold though.
Thanks again Canadian Poncho for the classified section!
