Question 1971 442 Decklid

Sadly, I found out yesterday from the body shop that my original decklid isn't worth saving. I'm looking to buy an aftermarket one ASAP. Can anyone recommend a decent one?

OPGI is out of stock.

Year One...not much info on their site. GM licensed resto product?? Couldn't get an answer on that when I called.

Tamraz on ebay??

If anyone has any useful info re this, I'd be most appreciative.

Why not a used trunk lid that's in good shape?

You should check the application. This deck lid is for Cutlass Supreme. Your profile pic is a 3687 model, which it will not fit.

CS decklid LOOKS the same but has slightly different profile and eyebrow drops.

Thanks...I did notice that it wasn't the right application for my car when I got over there. Thanks for the heads up though.

I realize I didnt give you the exact match in the link. I didnt have time to dig around this is just meant to get you in the ball park. If you still dont see it call Goodmark. They have both. Cant tell if you have a CS or real 442 from the avatar? looks more CS to me.

May be onto an NOS deck lid. Price might be cost prohibitive however. Waiting to find out.......

Absolutely...no problem and much appreciated. The car is a true 442, not a CS. Thanks again.

Just an FYI, the 442 was available on the CS vert from 70-72, which would make it a real 442 still. The 442 option just wasn't offered on the CS Hardtop from 70-72. We're all on the same page now. The reason I suggested your car was a 3687 model is the quarter panel trim. On CS, there is a quarter panel extension that changes the contour of the back.
See what I mean in this pic?

I might be confused. I do see. However, my car is a 1971 442 hardtop. 4487? I need to get some pics up.

I have one shipping out to me now. BUT...if it's a piece of junk, I'll be giving you a shout. Is yours original or a newer reproduction? Thanks for your reply.
