Welcome to M&M  !
There is a Fairlane specific vendor that advertises in Hemmings Motor News.
You should be able to find them on their website.------------------

Is the Fairlane a hardtop or sedan (or do you guys use funny names like "Saloon"?)The hardtop stuff is more expensive around the door windows but still shouldn't be $1500. The Fairlane stuff is a bunch more than Mustang equivalents, i need windshield and rear window rubbers and that's about $300 Canadian.
