The molds gone missing/damaged is hardly a reason, as mentioned by others, replicating parts has never been as easy as today. If the molds are CNC, it's an option the CAD files are still there, these don't get eaten by age. Plus other companies that mentioned having the same issues about the molds when asked if they would ever do a re-re of their classic cars, suddenly were able to do even more than one re-re.
It also only takes minutes for some skilled in CAD to recreate a part/s if they have one in front of them. Heck, they could even just do a 3D scan of the part!
