is there any type of fix for this or do I need to scour the internet for a used one that doesn't exist?
Great info, thanks!They are riveted from the factory. If you remove it from the car you might be able to rivet it back together if not broken. JB weld won't hold it together.
FYI you need to basically remove the bumper to remove the whole tailight assembly, which is the only way to attempt the repair. I completely loosen the bolts on the opposite side of the bumper, and remove the bolts on the side you want to remove. Doing it this way you don't have to completely drop it, which is nice if you don't have an extra set of hands.
Im interested, do you have a pic?It's been a long time since I've posted here so sorry for the late replay. The answer is yes they are riveted at the factory and yes it can be repaired. I am in the process of replacing mine. It only took 5 yards looking for a donor set that I had repaired and rechromed.
The good news is I have an unbroken left (drivers side) available and I won't be looking to rape anyone on the price as long as I know it's going on a car and not on the shelf or on the market after it leaves me.
PS: I'll be keeping the lenses .

That would be awesome! Thank you!Hey Byron,
There was a four door 66 at a yard less than a mile from my house a couple weeks ago. I'll run over there tomorrow at lunch to see if it's still there. If it they're in good shape, I'll PM you. Keep your phone close!

They're both toasted. That's what I went there for initially. Tail light lenses are garbage too.While yer at it, please check out the front turn signal lenses too. If they are not broken, I could use them.

A little too rich for my blood at the moment, plus I'm not looking to get divorced, but might be worth it. My wife almost had a heart attack when I told her the steering wheel recast price earlier this week.Typical. . . Thanks for checking it out.
