Re: 72 Eagle Pics
I would get in touch with Phoenix Graphix, they do the TA birds etc, they may have them or could do them. There are companies out there that can make graphix for the complete car, they could redo these if the $$$ was right. I saw one of the companies on the horsepower tv show on spike, they wrapped their Nova drag car, I am sure that company could redo these graphix if there was a demand.

Re: 72 Eagle Pics
That is cool. Does anyone know how rare they are eagle/sportbird #"s anyone. That may be one worth going to the trouble of restoreing back to original spec/concourse ect. RJ22

Re: 72 Eagle Pics
The guy that bought the truck new in '72 for $3,348.00. Said that he had only seen one other truck with the eagle package. He said the day he bought the truck about 2 hours from the dealership and two miles from home a young kid beeped the horn and past him. In 35 years that is the only one he has ever seen, Pretty neat I thought. Thanks for the feed back. Josh

Re: 72 Eagle Pics
Rare, is a funny thing, sometimes it means only a few were made, but it can also mean only a few were bought!! This is just a sticker, no extra anything, but decals and they were dealer installed not factory. I like it and the retro 70's vibe is cool, probably even more cool now than back then? See if someone can remake them, I like to see a set of new repop decals.

Re: 72 Eagle Pics
I would like to have one to restore.I think just for the "huh" "wow" "Uhhhhh" factor.Rare is when few were made or bought.I don't see lots of value but it is cool and you know there wont be another at the truck show.I say restore it for posterity's sake.

Re: 72 Eagle Pics
document the hell out of it with pics. maybe a vehicle "wrapz" place can reproduce the stickers. I think that's what i'm gonna do with mine. for me, they're so hideous they're cool. and very '70's, which is also becoming more en vogue...

Re: 72 Eagle Pics
Definitely awesome in it's uniqueness. It looks to be in good enough shape that I would "rat rod" it just like it is (do suspension/engine, etc...) for now until you figure out what to do about the graphics replacement.
