Mine is missing and what is left behind looks like someone took a pair of pliers and yanked it off during a pit stop.

Is this part available just as a shield or part of a trunk patch? I looked at a couple of suppliers but I am not finding anything.

Also, if you have one, are the different versions interchangeable? If I backdate the exhaust on a 76 can I use the earlier version? Not to hijack the thread, but if new ones are made, which version?

I dont know of anyone reproducing them but I have one or more late ones.
The early version seems to be harder to come by.

Mine is a 74, I assume late? Got any pics?

Heat protection plate, that is why it did not turn up in any of my searches under all the other names I tried.

I know when I had some work done on my car Cary made it so that it could screw in. No need to weld it, and easier to service.

Got any pics? That sounds doable. This car is not very nice and I don't weld.

I ended up welding nuts to the underside of the shield, everywhere there was a welded tab. I have small, countersunk screws in the truck....

Thanks for posting the link. An hour after I clicked the buy button you sent the shipping tracker and its delivered tomorrow. I thought Mark was fast at 914Rubber. You're more like 914Amazon.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) just the luck of the day (go buy a loto ticket!) to catch me on the computer rather than wrenching on a cust car.

Sorry guys the day job has kept me busy. I was checking my photos and don't know if I have one. He used tinnerman nuts on the body and drilled the shield to screw through adding a lock washer.

I miss Cary

I haven't had a chance to get out to the car yet.
