Thanks for the interest, Bluemeanie. Right now I'm just looking for decent, used, non-repro parts. So far I've located everything I need just some things are not at the right prices for my budget right now or are going to be hard to retrieve.
A member of another forum has graciously offered me his 1954 Driver's side fender free of charge as long as I can find a way to get it home from central Washington state. The cheapest shipping quote I have gotten is $125. Which is pretty good I think. Any ideas on if I can get it shipped cheaper?
Radiator (I've found a pressure tested, no-guarantee one for $150, just considering upgrading to a 4-core desert cooler from Patrick's but it's $500 --OUCH-- Any recommendations about this? Can I get a Desert Cooler 4 Core Radiator anywhere else cheaper? Is there another 4-core radiator that does the same job for cheaper?)
Also, I went to a car show the other day and saw some cool 'bolts with cool rims. I really like the look of these rims, I won't be buying rims for a long while but when I do, what will fit my truck as it is? I'd like to get some bigger rims than currently on the truck or whatever looks best. These are the rims I like, what will fit?
Old School Rims Also for a later down the line improvement, what are the options for a disc-brake conversion on a bolt? I'd like to do this eventually, what is the best it in your guy's opinions? What's the cheapest way to go? Are there cars that I can take the parts off of to do this at a junkyard? If so, what cars?
Other future plans as of now that I can probably achieve by next summer (Not in any specific order):
Do a tune up on the car
Drain gas tank of old gas
12V Conversion
Go through all the brakes
Redo Weatherstripping
And whatever else comes up along the way
Thanks for all your continued interest and for sustaining mine!
