A couple of 69 barracuda questions

Good luck with that repop tail panel, I have one here I can't use its made out of aluminum as thin as paper. It will bend out of shape just looking at it and Metro never gave me my money back for the piece of junk. All of the panels aftermarket suppliers are selling are coming from Metro.

I got to see and feel one these prior to buying and opted to find a better "previously used" one I belive can be restored with minimal effort. The emblem is peened over from the rear. This is a one off 69 only emblem that is very hard to find!!!!!
