Is the arrow emblem on the front grille on a 68 different from the one on the rear panel?  My XP has an R/T emblem on the front. Want to take it back to original.

Does anyone sell a reproduction piece?

Thanks....Kevin

Ok. Thanks.

I picked up a new rear arrow from Firestone Collectables but can't find a source for the front one.

I ran into the same problem with my '69.  I ordered a reproduction from Year One but found that it mounted with two pins and did not use any screws as the orginals did.  I ended up buying an NOS emblem off ebay.  I think I still have the year one emblem somewhere.  Nice piece except it didn't mount as original.

B5 charger, sounds like they sent you a 68 emblem instead of the 69.
Some of the repo stuff still has the part number moulded into the back side.

At the time I ordered it they claimed it was the same for both.  That has been a few years ago so maybe they have since corrected the problem.  Either way I have a good NOS piece now.  I can't find the Year One piece anywhere I must have given it to somebody.
