Sometimes It's Just Better To Be Lucky...

I had looked around the Interweb, off and on, for a month looking for a turn signal / parking light bezel molding for my '76 Cutlass. Knowing that parts are difficult to find for these mid '70s cars I just kept digging and changing the search wording. FINALLY, not only did I find the bezel molding but, it is NOS with the the original, somewhat disintegrated packaging but, original parts label, as well. The part is clean as a whistle.

The moral of the story is...If at first you don't succeed keep on, keepin' on. Change words around as much as you can and you might get lucky.
