Bummer!!! Hope it didn't happen on your watch?
Call Steve Wilkensen. He should have what you need.
Otherwise get out tin, wood stump, and hammers...!
Happy hunting!
..I'll bet the front bumper (aka hood) could be rebuilt, at least the frame straightened and someone way more talented than me to re-apply a skin. Once you find that guy, anything next is just time and money.....
A few years ago, a group in Germany called Springbok had a ridiculously rare cache of Goose parts for sale, including front fenders and hoods. Most of it was original, from the DeTom factory. I actually thought it was a scam at first because it was just so hard to believe. Sure enough, it was legit. Maybe you can track down the buyer.
Dear all
some years ago I have bought 50 % of the very expensive Springbok parts. In the meantime I've restored my Mangusta and some of the parts are left over. The parts are in my garage in Switzerland in Basel.

Chris, I suspected that may have been you (after a comment by Steve, I bought a set of Goose lug nuts that sparked my bitterness to DHL...Frank at Springbok was a huge help in spotting me another 16 and literally the next day, after 6 months, the original package lost by DHL was returned).
That collection of parts was much more exciting to look at than even a fully assembled Goose...Somewhere between the parts you didn't use and those you didn't buy must be some opportunity...
