Re: Is this a good find............

gm has been know to produce stuff for years after the initial production, they did not discontinue the 69 chevy truck upper trim until about 1999 and that only due to the mold breakage of the lf front fender trim, after that seth at golden state was able to buy the dies from gm and continue reproducing them , I think he re made the lf front fender die.

in 1999 we were still buying 60-66, and 67-72 door sill plates from gm in the wrappers.
so yes the www shows that it is modern production, but it is still GM, however one thing to look out for, is that the dies should be considerably worn after 40+ years of production.....so fit might not be perfect...
