Whats the latest talk regarding reproduction GTS guards to suit HT?
My panel beater has suggested I consider a pair for my 69 GTS Monaro resto, as the ones on it have been cut-and-shut and are full of bog and rust, and not worth spending money on when I can buy new repro ones. I'm led to believe they are all made in Taiwan and can expect some adjustments to headlight buckets and front apron areas to get to fit right. Any advice and opinions welcome please. |

I used a rhs gts guard on my hk and had no problems with it,just a little bit of tweaking here and there which is expected from repro panels.the lhs gts guards wasn't available at that time but could be now.

I'll retract my Statement, it was the RH one that was good and LH wasn't. I just checked my shed and I knew I had 2 or 3 good secondhand guards that I intended to match with the available new ones to make pairs, and I have good LH guards. |
