lets try to keep questions about the product in the other threads so nate can answer them easier.

Wild83C10 · 10-03-2008, 06:00 AM

I'm interested, not commited yet. Can we get some more details from Nate (Porterbuilt) about the details of the group buy. When is payment due, after we get 5 people when should we expect to receive them? Any other information Nate might want to share with us. Thanks

**lolife99** · 10-03-2008, 07:45 AM

I may be interested in a 67-72 version if the price is right. Subscribing,...

As to the "Group Buy"...

The group buy consists of 5 or more Dropmembers, and is a 10% discount. There is currently no time-line as to when the group buy option will expire. The prices next to the kits are before discount is applied.

Keith, as for the price being "right"... it's not going to get any lower.

Not only do you get a quality product, but you also get the knowledge and service that come with it!

As for the delivery time, that all depends on the current volume of units I am building. I do let you know when to expect it once you place the order.

Dropmember C10 ($999 plus shipping)

crossmember
inner frame support plate
upper control arm/bag mounts
Frame notches for rack and pinion clearance
Upper shock mounts
Motor mounts (SBC, BBC, or GENIII)
Transmission crossmember
Billet rack mount bushings
Billet tie-rod ends and chromoly heims w/hardware
Grade 8 hardware to complete install
Instructions

*bag plate option for use with factory arms add $65 (available for 63-72 and 73-87 arms)

I should've added the disclaimer that this offer is not valid with any other coupons!

The discount is 10% total.

**lolife99** · 10-03-2008, 01:25 PM

Nate,... I guess I was thinking about the "10 or more",... and the "we'll see what I can do" pricing. Officially count me in. I need a Dropmember for a 67-72 with a BBC (Hmmm or maybe just a SBC). But I AM in. Who's next?

SCOTI · 10-03-2008, 05:12 PM

Hhmmmm..... I have been wanting a big window short fleet 64-66 or I suppose the 74 could benefit from one too

.

**lolife99** · 10-03-2008, 05:31 PM

Nate,... PM me when the count gets to the "discount price" and I'll give you a call. Thanks, Keith.

**lolife99** · 10-05-2008, 06:04 PM

No one else? Come on,... I had a hard time talking myself into getting another one. We need just three more guys.

PBFAB.COM · 10-05-2008, 06:26 PM

I have had several PMs from other members expressing their interest. I am sure the minimum number will be reached in the next couple days.

ZZ4Blazer · 10-07-2008, 04:25 PM

Count me in for the gp.

edflores · 10-08-2008, 04:06 AM

so nate, did the 5 go through yet so i can start a new list?

I haven't officially punched it through yet, I have a couple more guys who are deciding. There are currently 6 guys for sure and waiting, and a couple on the fence. I will be closing this group purchase out within a few days, but whenever there's 5 guys that get together I will still honor the discount.

Nate

Twisted78SS · 10-10-2008, 04:22 PM

Nate,

While I may not be ready for one quite yet, I think your statement says it all.

"I will be closing this group purchase out within a few days, but whenever there's 5 guys that get together I will still honor the discount."

I am sure I speak for several others who want to say thanks! and keep up the great work..

bmeredith · 10-12-2008, 10:49 PM

fyi, i'm in officially
