Frame repair sections.
« on: February 12, 2013, 01:47:05 PM »
Anyone sitting on a -65 Skylark frame that are too bad to restore?
I am in need of frame sections for my front outer corners (a foot or less
before and after the corner on both left and right side). preferable regular
Skylark frame pieces.

Tempting, but I think the freight down to TX will kill the budget.
I will keep you in mind though, going to look at a GS/convertible
frame Monday next week located 3 hrs from my house.
Thx. for your reply.
