Does anyone make a reproduction fenders and headlight bezels for the 1966 Dart?
I'll chime in. Nope! A wanted ad here is your best bet. Find a fender and hopefully meet at the Nats or Carlisle coming up soon.Does anyone make a reproduction fenders and headlight bezels for the 1966 Dart?

Here's a 66 Dart headlight bezel. No one repops them.Fenders are not reproduced, you'll have to find a used one or maybe go glass.
Last year at either the Nats or Carlisle I came across repro 1964 Valiant bezels on a show board. I inquired but they didn't have any at the show.
I went to their website when I got home and ordered one. It shipped pretty quickly and I'm FINALLY going to put it on the car later today. Quality looks very good and I'll find out about the fit later. I forget the exact price but believe it was $110-120.
I had an Australian company name that sold 64 repros for $300/pr but don't have it handy.
You'll have to check if they carry Dart parts. HerbsParts.com.
By the way, Herbs was purchased by AMS Obsolete but still sell stuff under Herbs Parts name. I bought many things from Herbs over the years. Always enjoyed talking to him and his wife.

I checked with Laysons about the possibility of remaking the headlight bezels. The press dies are around $10,000 for each side and the trim dies are 5-$7500. You have to sell a butt load just to pay for the dies not taking into account the fixtures, raw materials, and labor to produce, warehouse, box ,and ship.
Is it for sale?
Depends on how much they charge....if they sell one for $20K they have their investment money back!
Just a photo.Is it for sale?
I have the original but I don't think that it's repairable?Just a photo.
I have a pair that were straightened, stripped of anodizing, and polished. They look nice but boy do you need to beat the crap out of them to straighten. I'll look for photos.I have the original but I don't think that it's repairable?
