Default Borgenson Conversion Kit Deal!

Hi all,
Bin away for a couple years(life, go figure) but now it's time to get the '71 Vert back on the road! I'm rebuilding the complete front end, ball joints, all bushings, tie rod ends, tie rod sleeves, springs, shocks, idle arm, and steering upgrade, EVERYTHING! Just got a complete Borgenson box conversion kit for C3's with power steering for $630 with free shipping on the fleebay. It is listed as buy it now at $670(which is a pretty good price to begin with). It has a "make offer" option. I offered $600 and they countered me back at $629.99, I grabbed one. If you are going to buy one, give it the same shot.

Nothing wrong with that price but most people including myself have been able to pick them up cheaper at Mudflaps.com. It seems the kit is on there perpetually "on sale" for $602 plus free shipping; and if you wait once in awhile they have a 10% off coupon on top of it all.

I was looking at the mudflaps site and they were a little more then what I paid, at least today. Maybe they have come down in price as the reviews I have been reading were a few years old and prices talked about were $8-$900. Been seeing them at other sites around $750 so I thougt $630 was a sweet deal. Just glad I shopped before paid the $750 that I had budgeted into the project.

Forgot the part number but I needed the one for cars that already have pwr steering and don't need a pump and brackets in the kit.
