Re: Shipping increases
Well stated Tim, it comes down to the fact that trying to obtain perhaps 40-50 year old usable parts does have a cost factor to it. Yes, new parts can be obtained and from many places that offer "free shipping" . BUT, and this can be a game changer for sure, NOTHING fits like original parts from the General. Any there is no such animal as free shipping. It does not exist. It may be listed on your invoice as free shipping but each and everyone who has ever purchased a part has all contributed to the free shipping coffers. It is costly to maintain these old trucks and even more so to restore to their original glory.
