Smile Restoring one more and final

Seems I have enuff parts to do one more 100% .

I'm seeking the best deal to replace the box bed floor With fasteners and new strips, and lumber. Who has the best price on your list of suppliers.For a kit like this. oak or white pine which ever or might there be a choice.Last one of these I did the kit was what I consider outragous but had to have it to stay in step with time and motion. :-)

Re: Restoring one more and final

When Mar-K offers 10% off and free shipping it's hard to beat... some said classic parts had good prices...

Re: Restoring one more and final

I have had this ole heapo for a very long time and has been hotrodded , street strip anytime anywhere, been x country a few times . Lart trip I took it on was to deliver a donation to the board at Boss's house . Somewhere in Southern Missouri. Old thing runs like a Champion . So I was thinking a nice face lift exterior wise and may be some different wheels. Will powder coat the frame and few other parts that are not already coated. Repaint the inside too.mechanically the ole heap is good and will run low or top end with the best of them. Funny too is the Rice Rockets have been a challange..lol Thought about cheating with the bottle . but Too hard on the engine.

You're not going to beat Mar-K for your bed parts needs. Top notch folks.

For the area, Mar-K is pretty tough to beat.

Glad to see you still kicking there Larry; I've been wondering where you have been.
