I'm buying one from mack hills in Missouri. Thats where c&g and macs (ecklers) get there's from and raise the price. Better get on the list, they told me 20 weeks lead time.

I sand blasted a set of old chrome rims and used 2k epoxy primer, then painted them black with 2k paint, not spray can stuff. They have held up well and look good.

You guys are worrying me. But there are no other choices. Couldn't be as bad as some of the crappy patch panels you get now. I'll find out in 20 weeks.

I also have had 2 different radiators from brassworks. One is in front of a merc flathead and it is well made and the engine runs very cool. They will custom make about anything you need.

Thanks for the replies. I will call them and get prices and time estimate.
