Thanks for the input. Funny thing is yesterday after I posted here I started watching a bunch of youtube videos of guys doing metal work on 60-66 trucks and I was like " I can do that." One guy was saying it was his first time doing metal work. I'm going to give it a shot. It's just too much darn money for substandard parts that are going to be a fight to make fit anyway. I have an old small wire feed mig welder. All I need is a regulator and tank. I might actually practice on my rear stepside fender with wire flux core. It's dirtier but you grind it all off anyway. I will post my results as I make progress in the next few months. Thanks.....
