Front and rear bumpers should be available reproduction.
Chip has reproduced the scorpion emblem also, but last I heard they are black, not chrome. Good used, good luck. I have found a few sets NOS but they are getting tougher.
Taillight is available NOS but I have heard they are a pretty common trailer light.
there are a few vendors of nos parts, and reproduction parts. I believe some have posted ads in the classifieds here and other vintage sled forums.

I have a repop rear bumper and it looks great. The cost of chrome has gone way up since I baught mine though.
I have the art for the emblems and plan on making a bunch more stickers. Any size. If anyone is interested let me know. They are cheap. (scorpionlilwhip, I owe you some)
Ddub is right, you can get tail lights at auto stores. they are not exact tho.

Pararailer, tell me more about your decals. Are they outside quality?
Maybe pm me so we don't derail the thread.

Pararailer: you have the art work for the emblems. Have you found a place that will remanufacture them?
As for the decals would you ship to Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada?
ddub: I've been in contact with Jack regarding reproduction bumpers although he is out of stock right now. Do you know who else sells them? Also How would I contact Chip?

My decals are not 100% acurate compared to the actual emblem but I didnt really want it to be. The digital art that I found on the scorpion trails website is really different than the emblem so with the help of our professional mac artist at my work, we came up with it kind of using the best of both. I work at a graphics shop that makes printing plates. I emailed the file to a diecut sticker cutter that made it out of Chrome vinyl material. All I would have to do is call up and get more made in whatever size or color. Would be great on a trailer or garage door. Could ship anywhere. This one is enlarged a couple inches. I could go back and recreate art that perfectly matches the emblem but it will look kind of sloppy in this sticker form. On the other hand, the digital art doesnt look right either. Im not afriad to stray from original!
