    I dont have pictures on me but I can send after work.

    Off the top of my head I have-

    The hood
    The nose piece with hood latch, grill and BUICK lettering
    The headlight buckets
    Right fender with inner fender
    Radiator and top plate
    Cooling fan and fan shroud
    I do not have a bumper or core support.

    It's not everything you need but it'll put a "dent" in your needs list

    I have no idea how to get parts to Poland but i'm willing to help/figure it out.

    Coincidentally my best friend growing up, his parents were from somewhere near Warsaw

    Great! I'm waiting for photos of these parts.
    I'll also ask some people about shipment.

    And the most important thing - How much do you want for each of them?

    Believe the car in original post came from Albuquerque, NM. I purchased some parts off a '74 in a W. El Paso Texas yard, but it too was hit in the front. Looks like your Grille emblem and front header letters are OK, I did get those off the El Paso car, as well as the faux front fender portholes. The '74 had a three speed stick, I did get the pedals, and linkage, bracketry, hardware, etc. Still have them. Finally, it had some usable interior bits, but they are Pea Green.

    Forgot to mention, also have Left (driver's) side Door Shell, glass, quarter glass, and latch parts. And Trunk Lid. Yep, everything you already have. Maybe someone else will see it.

    DVAP (Desert Valley Auto Parts) website shows a '74 Apollo Hatchback coupe in their Black Canyon yard. Suspect that is the "new" location. No pics of front clip, but they apparently have a whole car. Did you also try CTC Auto Ranch in Denton, Texas, as well? Those are the two biggest old car yards I can think of. Another is Sundell, in the Southeast, believe they are primarily known as a G body place, but may have earlier stuff.

    If you send the OP a PM (conversation), it may be linked to his personal email. The moderators cannot tell if the OP has this set up.

    I've been emailing him. Kind of a pain to dig the parts out and then not get a response...
