help wanted
robroy - September 5th, 2003 at 07:34 PM

You heard of the saying when it rains it pours, well I picked up a nice split panel van the other day after looking for weeks and then I got offered a 57 split 9 window. I want to restore both vehicles and have them on the road. The '57 I want to restore to original condition so I need a full set of rubbers, lights rechroming or is it easier to get new? Where can I pick up rubbers?
rear window catches and silly little things?
The van I want to lower, what can I take it down without getting into problems and expense? What about wheels and tyres? Thanks for any help you can give me
