Default Re: Bob drake again

i'm finishing a 27 Tv8, i'm amazed at how henry could make and sell these cars for a few hundred $. having to rebuild doors [door latchs, window operaters] AMAZING that any one would make rebuild kits for them, springs, gears pins, clips etc., these came from Langs but same goes for Drake , Carpenter and others that actually have the parts made. many just sell others parts. i think its great that they make the parts, most are good. i try to buy most of my parts at flea markets, BUT i start looking for parts 10-15 years befor i start the project. will be 74 coupl weeks, have 1 more car a 34 roadster that i have all pieces i wanted, started looking 1999..plan ahead...Boo
