Unhappy Had an accident. Need parts for a 72 Ventura

The worst happened today. A truck cut into my lane from the right, swerved to avoid it and just clipped the back of a school bus in the left lane.
So now I am in need of a driver side front fender, a front bumper, front header panel, headlight bezel, marker light, and who knows what else. If you have parts or know of some let me know.
Thanks Joshua

Just within the last few weeks I've seen a front fender & some other front end parts for your car. You may pay more for them on ebay but the stuff I've seen has been NOS stuff.

I've got a driver side fender, door and hood. I'll let you have 'em cheap if you want them. I'm not that for away from you either.

The pictures I have won't load on here. If you're interested, pm me your email and I'll send you the pictures.

If you check your other post, I added a link to a NOS header panel for a 72 Ventura. It's not cheap, but it's not horrible either. It's local to me, so if you need it I can check it out for you.

Ouch! Just paid 225 for one. Didn't think another would come up. Thanks for the post. I should get that one too and try to recoup some of the extra money.

I just got a quote just to re-chrome a Ventura front bumper from Advanced Plating. 850!!! And that is without any repair work at all which every bumper will need or it probably wouldn't need to be re-chromed. Does that seem nuts to anyone else?
Got another estimate of $390 from Sandy's Bumper Mart in Syracuse. That seems more reasonable. I'm thinking painted bumpers may be the way to go for now lol.

Default bumper

Hey just thought I would chime in on the bumper rechrome. There is a place just south of Atlanta Ga. Who quoted me just under $500 to rechrome both my front and rear 74 GTO bumpers. Can't remember the name but saw some of there work. As nice if not better than Advance Chroming... If I can find his card I'll post the name of the company. Merry Christmas

Goatless, from this forum, said he has a fender for me. Just have to schedule at time to pick it up and I should be good. Just need a front bumper and a headlight bezel and I sould be back in business.

I have a couple extra Headlight bezels for a 74 Ventura. Not sure if they are the same as your year but if they are, I can take care of you on one. Just cover the shipping.
