Re: My 61 Panel
That panel is in really good shape. I'm assuming from your post that some body repair has been done?
How difficult is it to find/get parts for these older trucks in Germany?

Re: My 61 Panel

Re: My 61 Panel
a couple of thoughts...
I noticed that you are in germany... A new/used 63-66 frame might be expensiveto purchase,and transport overseas... you are going with a dropmember anyway,and porterbuilt makes one for a 60-62,and to set your burb up like dinos with the rake, I think all you would have to do in the rear is a 'C' notch, or a small step notch. either way I think even fabbing up an entire new back half would probably be cheaper than shipping aa frame overseas. the body looks nice btw. |
