It looks like you've found a replacement already! Where are you working at now, if you don't mind me asking?

Re: my 80 build

I tried forever to sell the one I had, and ended up giving it away. It always seems like when you are not looking, they are everywhere. As soon as you start looking for something, the supply magically dries up.

At minimum.... keep what you have until the replacement is within your grasp. Seems like just swapping the one bedside would have been sufficient.

Re: my 80 build

I know you had a lot of time in it before but i think the new direction you are headed looks much better. Keeping the wheels?

Re: my 80 build

Big10 i saw that you converted your windows from power to manual. I have all the parts to do this on my 82. I was wondering what all it entails. Do you have to completely disassemble the doors?
