My problem is two fold.
Not only are the aftermarket parts getting pricey AND fit like crap, but the supply is running short because of high demands for these parts.
I had needed two quarters for the Stang project and everyone only had the passenger sides available. I was told 2-4 week lead time for the driver side.
Not as easily said. I was attempting a fastback conversion on this conv. and needed BOTH before I started because of the difficulty in matching the deck lid to the quarters. Long story short, 2-4 weeks turned into 6 and I couldn’t touch the car until all the parts were here. I lost out on 6 weeks of precious build time. Those 6 weeks will make or break me in the up coming weeks!
