bill is a great guy, and his products are awsome. for the prices original 73+ upper arms go for, i cant believe people still buy the stock junk. for what a complete a body disk set up sells for used needing rebuilt, you can buy some trick upper arms and go to the junkyard and get a disk setup from a diplomat and be better off.

Most of us won't make TOO MUCH FUN of you if you say something stupid, unless it's a real doozy......... Actually we're a fairly tame lot............

Gotta love an enthusiasts board with fewer than 5000 members.

I sure miss the moparts.com of 1999.

It would cost a bunch more to rebuil it than to get another body.Its kinda like my body worn out.It pretty much needs it all 1/4s floors trunk inner fender etc.Worst part is when I had 2 of them I scrapped the good body that had a straight axle under it to keep this one.I was young and dunb back then.I thought this body was better.That and I dont do body work.Rocky

I see what you mean. cash is a big part of the problem, but if the car has sentimental meaning you should keep it and just cut out the cancer and little by little replace whats been cut out. those are awsome cars and i don't see many of them, but i live in cali.... i want one lol. if i had your car i would fab my own floors and what not out of sheet metal, fix the frame rails with thick gauge metal or go cut some off of the junk yard cars and graft them into yours, ya know stuff like that (i like to improvise cause I'm a broke SOB).... however your not a body man  Dunno think of it as an adventure have some fun. when you take before and after pictures the feeling is better than any other satisfaction (well except on if ya know what i mean! lol)
