I've been reading this thread for a while now trying to decide if I want to get rid of some stuff or not. But looking at the pictures of your car and seeing how much paint is missing since your misshaps I'll just throw this out there. I have an og paint java green hood with some sweat patina and two og paint 64 front fenders I'd be willing to sell you or trade you. And its just your luck, I'm just down the street at 7th ST. and Indian School. Let me know if you're interested.
