monstaru Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 had to get rid of the frame i had.but just bought another one.from an 83.after the snow dies down abit and we get dug out over here i am to pick it up.the brat downstairs is already stripped of unnecessary weight.save the suspension.but thats just 18 bolts or so. doors are gone engine tranny out,no interior, no windows.pretty much a shell on wheels at this point.just waitin. i am trying to get enough space in the garage to lift the body up enough to roll the frame in under it in the next couple of weeks.but this snow has slowed me down a bit.i'll get pics as soon as i get the frame under her.that was the plan anyway. well that sucks. sorry for the bum info, they used to sell them when i was looking a few years ago. so your project didn't get kanked? i heard a rumor it got canned.

Rooinater Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 just got off the phone with them at 3:30pm pacific time, they still sell them. presently out of them at the moment, but should have some in stock in the next few weeks, he just needs to machine the flanges. otherwise he said, if you needed them in a quick pinch, go to inchworm.
