Default Finally got a frame!!!

Drove out to Maine and bought a frame for my buddies 71 from another forum member SPF72. The drive was not fun through the bad weather and very icy roads but we managed to get home alive! Thanks Steve for giving us a good deal on the frame. Now im going to start working on the car and I should have it on the road by this summer.

May I asked what the frame set you back ?

I'm trying to find a good replacement for my 82 and got a email earlier from craiglist that a guy local has one but he wants $800 for it....I was looking to spend at least 1/2 that.

$800 is not bad if the frame is in very good shape
