    I am going to dive into this thing. I think I need a new carb, I know I need rebuild gasket sets for the transfer case and Fhead engine. Can I get these through Napa? We have one about 30 miles from here. Is there a better place? Also I will take the top of the T90 and look inside, so I will need a gasket for that. Oh well, will also need new leaf springs, I don't care about making it taller, but would like to get a little wider tires to add stability, should I get a lift set or just original. I will need, shocks, brake master cylinder, probably wheel bearings and brake pads and cylinders, the little round lights in the front (the glass in mine is broke), tail lights (don't have any), all the universal joints, fuel pump, possibly a radiator (mine does not leak but is dirty inside and looks like it should be leaking), water pump does not leak should I replace it anyway? Gooseneck for thermostat is in sorry shape, can I find one? I will need a horn kit and turn signal assembly (mine does not have one at all). In case you cannot tell, I am bringing this baby back from the grave. The body was all but gone and I have even had to weld the frame back together in several places. I assume I should avoid JC whitney for this stuff, does the parts houses still carry this stuff for a 59?

    There's a sticky thread at the top of the forum with nothing but parts suppliers.

    Search for "Solex" for the carb.

    RE JCW, I'd avoid. I don't think there's anything wrong with the merchandise, but the seller gets a lot of negative comments.
