Who have yall found to be the cheepest, have the biggest selection or have the best customer service? I know there are always good ones and bad ones, and figured some of yall might alredy have it kinda figured out. Not that its up yalls alley, but avoid Obsolete Ford in OKC like the plague. Thats one I had to learn on my own and I figured Id share. Not that any of yall have ever taken a wrench to a ford, right?
Its sittin on a 74(or maybe just a little bit later, Ive got it written down somewhere) 3/4t suburban chassis. It fits very nice(length and width). Only small issue is the rear is a tiny bit too wide to really tuck the tires up under there, if I were to really want to lower it Id have to run a diffrent rear end, or do some beating on the inner wheel well. But Ive got no plans to bag it, so that wont be a problem, even towing a heavy load should be fine. Its got a rebuilt 327/700r4.
And some more good news... When I looked at it, and bought it, it was dark outside, and all I had was a flash light. Got it to my house today, and I was pleasently supprised. Rust isnt as bad as I was thinking. Still gonna need some repairs, but shouldnt need total panel replacement. Still some cuttin and weldin, but nothing too bad. And my inners arent rusted out either, which makes life a lot easier. Talk about a pleasnt suprise.
On the rear barn door glass. Ive got one good peice. Is new glass(or used) avaible for that? It seemed it only had a very light curvature to it, so I was thinking with a little bit of mod to the window surround(just slight reshaping of the lip the rubber mounts on, to flatten it out a little), flat glass would work great. But thats just by taking a quick glance at it. Any thoughts on the idea?
