I started tearing into my 1953 9300 that I got for free from my cousin. Of course sitting in a field for 30 years hasn't done anything any favors.

As it sits, I need the typical floor, outer and inner cowl, and bed supports.

Im also needing both rear fenders as the one has previous damage that could probably be repaired and the other one is rotted in multiple areas. I found a set of used fenders from a guy locally, but when I asked how much he said make an offer.

So what you pay for decent used fenders? They need some loving but they are way better than what I got.

I picked up a set of running boards from this guy too, but Im not really happy with them. One has a lot of deep pitting and the other has way more cracks than I knew could be on a running board. But I guess my labor is cheap.

I would pay 1/2 price of repops if they are in "good" shape.

That's what I was thinking.

Yup I agree. I just picked up a pair of fronts for my 54 (just to have some spares and ease into learning about bodywork). Their durn straight and just a couple little dings and a pinhole here or there near the bottom. Paid $150 a piece for em. I think a re-pop is going for close to $400?

Thanks guys, around here reproductions are going for almost $500. Pretty bloody steep if you ask me, might just go with American pricing.

Im going to check out a bunch of parts tomorrow so if non of them are what Im after, I might offer that guy $250 for the pair and see what he says.
