I thought I would share some of the places I have gotten my best deals on parts!Advance Auto has alot of things right in stock! I recently bought TRW.Upper ball joints for 13.99 TRW.Lower arms are 31.oo , a rebuilt master cyl. was 14.99 , brake pads were 10.99! and a duraspark distributor is 45.99 I also bout a few things from Autocrafters Like a new rug for 109.oo And My son bought a Comp-Cam Kit From MONEYMAKER racing For less than Summit racing!! WOW! And Last but not least! My new blue cloth bucket seats from a 84 Monti-ss for 60 bucks At first I didn't like the Idea of GM seats but I thought about it this way, I was giving them a better home !! It wasn;t there fault they got in with the wrong crowd!!

Scott go to your junk yard connection and look for a 76 mav. they all have disks. Pop the ball joints and take the whole hub, disks, calipers and rotors! Get the rubber lines too. And very important is the piece that holds the line to the frame you may not use alot of this stuff over but will have the parts to match up to if need be!

My son just bought a 4 core for his 68 stang at a Mustang place in Southington CT. for 199 +tax I will ask what the name of the place is when I see him. P.S. I know Autokrafters has them in there book. Part # 339 for 199. but it don't say if its a 3 row? Just call them there real good! Make sure you tell them you heard about them on M&M maybe they will become a sponcer ! http://www.autokrafters.com/mainframe.html [This message has been edited by 69maverick (edited 08-04-2001).]

Welcome to M&M Steve! A 3-core radiator will probably be cheapest from your local parts stores.
