Some of them from me from a few years back. He just bought a whole bunch of frames from down south. Not sure how many he has left though.

Here are some photos, I think. As mentioned previously, I am "stuck" with this frame. I already bought a complete 69 with a frame that looks like $%#@@ and this frame to ultimately go under it. Any and all thoughts, and comments are welcome...Thanks..jeff I just previewed them, not sure if I uploaded them correctly, but hopefully it gives you an idea of what I am working with.

Once the frame is "fixed" I am going to have it powder coated!

Seems to be a lot of those Jethros around. I think he and Bubba travel in the same circles.

I recently went through this frame repair and am very pleased with the reults. Have a look at this thread to see the before/after shots.
