Hmmmm, a flip front end? PM sent regarding pricing. Can you post some pictures? what about headlights / innerfenders? Does it use the original radiator support? have the wheel-lips been massaged to fit around larger tires or does it maintain original body lines?

also, where are you located? How much trouble would it be to crate & ship?

I am looking at putting an ex-racecar back on the street and this might be cheaper / easier / neater than original stuff.

thanks,
dj
