no harder to get than an empi steering wheel or empi gauges or 25hp pistons and barrels. if the price is right people will sell. aussie side trim was a dealer addition and made in very limited numbers. these were available early sixties so time has also taken its toll on these. limited supply and high demand means a premium price on these items. took me nearly 2 months to get a good set of taillights. good luck with your search.

what do thy look like, I might have a set lying around... or did I send them to the dump. Post a pic so I know what I'm looking for. As for the flash trim, be patient they do come up but the problem is that you and everyone else wants one. That means $$$.

It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.

didnt know the side trim was so popular. ther is a bug in a wreckers in bundaburg, but i think it is missing one piece. was also one in kilsyth for ages but i think it got crushed 12months ago.
