Re: whats better/cheaper to buy new or used body parts

We try to stay with used parts whenever possible. They usually are cheaper and fit better.

Many used parts can be fixed with a little welding and body work. Cab corners, rockers and floor pans are some parts we buy new. We have made patch panels for different parts of the floor when a pan is not required.

A lot of parts can be bought here on the board in the for sale section.
