Ok. I'm in Florida. How much is shipping please.

Shipping isn't too bad...unless you're not buying anything else. I have a hundred dollar minimum order policy. I'm sure you have other needs for your cruiser.:)

Oh I'm sure you got something I need. You don't have the 73 hood?
 
I'm not sure. It's kind of dark back there now. I will check on Monday. (Hoods are behind the doors)

That's an impressive collection. I started reading your soapbox today. Interesting.
 
One 1973 hood. No rust, pretty darn straight. $300 plus the ride.

The hood is black inside and out, which is a pretty good indicator to me that it is a factory replacement hood. I have had some other replacement sheetmetal parts over the years and they have always been black like that.

Looking for complete rear heater, hard lines, including the front hard TEEs and the hold down clamps for the lines. Wiring too if you have it. I have never had a rear heater and need all the parts to install. I have the rear heater fan switch in the dash. Thanks. Shipping to 28461.

A little help here. In my minds eye, '73 was the last year with the all-metal front heater box. I think those used hose to the rear heater, not hard lines. I should be able to help you either way, but I just happen to have a set of OE ribbed hose with hold down clamps and wiring in the back of my 45 to remind me to assemble a kit today. Not sure I'll get to it, as my honey-do list for my wife's b-day is pretty long.

I am not in desperate need for a hood so I will hold out until I find one a little prettier. Let me see what else I need and I will put in the request. Thank you for wrestling that off the shelf.

Either setup is fine, what you have available that will fit in a 10/72 truck. I actually have the 74+ heater in the front now so I am not going for original here.

Still need to do this, I know. Hoping to get to the hoses tomorrow.
 
Nope.
 
Do you still have the hood and what type of front seats does it have?
Thanks

Mark this is Jimmy and I already pm'd you about a seat part I'm needing.

The hood is posted earlier in this thread. The seats are buckets, with the rare one-year only pointed headrests.

I answered your other question in the steering wheel thread.
 
Sorry, that went with the tub.
