What kind of time frame were you quoted?
I don't have a time frame but I'm sure it'll be done in a couple months. I took care of the metal work. They'll have to go over each panel and use some filler here and there but not a lot. Its also stripped down pretty good.

I think they are Goodmark brand. I bought them from somebody. The quality is good but I did have to do some cutting and welding to make them meet the tailgate lines. I was satisfied overall though.

Probably. Too bad, those are good little cars. Glad Miss Loretta didn't get totaled, that's the main thing!

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Thats right. She's upset because she really liked the car. Its been a good one. The only problem we've ever had with it was the stepper motors on the dash cluster. I changed those out and that was it. Its had regular maintenance too. We did put two windshields in too from rock chips. Last one was a couple months ago. bummer. It only has 120K on it.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
On the bright side, I got my seat covers today. Can't wait for the weather to cooperate so I can set them outside to make them easier to put on.

Not bad for $200 shipped. Got em off of ebay.
