Dansk channels are suppose to be pretty good. TDCTDI recommended them. I just ordered up some from CIP1 because I don't have Klassic Fab money either.

I agree about Klockerflum. I bought some pans for my last 65' and they were made like crotchless panties. lol

No idea on the mounts. The stock ones are pretty flimsy, so maybe the CIP1's are just as lame. Laughing

Definitely not much to the floor pans. They would wave in the wind. Rolling Eyes

I don't see it as ghetto, rather, smart, though this morning put on the Squareback fuel pump using bailing wire. Laughing

Bummer about it eating your account! Hopefully it stops soon, you don't need more stress in your life, man.

I had a 2002 VR6 which I paid way too much for. Later, Dad needed a vehicle with aircon (the symptoms he told me he had, including a brief black out, sounded like a heat stroke) so gave it to him, but he wanted all the front suspension replaced and would pay. Put in over $1,200 and then he was too sick (I wasn't aware until too late) to remember it was a loan. I wasn't going to pay $500 to ship back here, so sold it for $200. Not upset, Dad spent a lot of money on me, point is, know all too well how little their worth and the astronomical parts costs.
