Good point Dan. Moparts is another one. That’s a big audience. |

Thought I would come back and explain the extra two I added above. Yes I will eventually use them for my projects with the other cars. The real reason is the lack of available quality parts for our vintage cars which is only continually getting worse. Can I really afford them right now - no but I will find a way. It seems like the quality of the newer parts being sold now can be a real crapshoot and I have been burned enough buying name brand parts that the bean-counters have put their fingers on. Just look at electronic parts and suspension pieces. So now when true quality part becomes available which I know I will need in the future I stretch the budget - my better half says I break it - and buy it and put it on the shelf for future use. And that is why forums like this - especially this one - are so valuable. I am now off my soapbox. Fred |

Thanks Dan, I agree posting on FABO is a great idea. Can someone do me a favor and post on FABO and other forums? I don't have an account. I probably should. I left Johnny a message yesterday, if he calls back today I'll let him know the current number and that interest continues to accumulate. And yes we need to support our vendors that provide quality parts. Cheers, Barnaby |

His website says they fit the Slant 6, but are the poly mounts themselves the same for the V8? I posted the link in early A body and Slant 6 sections on FABO. I also posted it on Moparts in the A body parts for sale 2nd quarter thread. |

Okay, I spoke to Johnny this morning. He is producing 40 sets at $139.00. If there is more demand I'd be happy to get in touch again. His production delay is with the chemicals he needs. He has all the metal ready to go. And thanks Rob for spreading the word! |

Johnny Spiva from Polybushings.com just emailed me. He asked that everyone that wants the mounts get in touch with him, his phone and email are at polybushings.com. He said first come, first served with 3 on the list so far. That leaves 37 sets. |
