I'm going to be ordering a bunch of parts for the restoration of my vert this Tuesday. The car is going to the body guy in about 3 weeks, so I have to get my last little bit so he can get started.
In an effort to save money on shipping, I'm trying to purchase as much stuff as I can from one single vendor.
I found this store on Ebay that has a ton of what I need, and they combine shipping, and of course it's nice buying online and saving 6% on sales tax.

Here is the link to the ebay store...
http://stores.ebay.com/ADEALS-Top-Quali ... 34.c0.m322

Here is the list of what I'm purchasing and its price. Just wanted to make sure I'm not overpaying on anything.
Any help and opinions are appreciated!!!!

Carpet (Black, Automatic) $ 129.95
19 pc Weather Strip Set (Conv.) $ 277.95
Outer Wheelhouses (pair) $ 224.95
Windshield (Clear, Convertible) $ 224.95
Battery Tray (w mount brackets.) $ 28.95
Gas Tank, Straps, 3/8 sending unit $ 209.95
Fenders (Pair) $1064.95
Inner Fender Cover Plates $ 18.95

On a side note, I will be running a 440 four-barrel carb. What sending unit should I buy? 3/8 or 5/16????

I'll be spending about $2200 plus shipping (not sure how much that will be until they combine everything).
 
If you are planning on the 440 get the 3/8" unit and a hard 3/8" fuel line from rear to front and a hard 3/8" line from the pump to the carb if it is available (if you plan on running a Carter/Edelbrock carb).

that ebay store looks like a roadrunner candy store......theres nothing like getting new parts and making a dream come true :D
 
Sounds like you are well on your way! :thumbsup: Hope you plan on taking a lot of pics of the progress!!!
 
My restorer recommended the tinted glass. I see you went with the clear. Just wondering? I guess to match all the other glass. That's cool. :thumbsup: I was replacing all the glass,so went with the tinted.Good Luck with all those new parts! Sounds Great! :drive:
 
I just ordered most of my list!

I was able to combine shipping because it's all coming from AMD...
-Pair of Fenders
-Pair of Outer Wheelhouses
-Windshield
-Battery Tray
-Inner Fender Cover Plates

$125 to ship everything, I didn't think that was too bad.

It should arrive in about a week! Off the body shop next week too.
I'll keep you guys posted!
