Real trucks are built, not bought Build thread

Give me a long enough lever and a place to stand, and I shall move the earth or break this bolt...Whatever, just hold my beer!

Yeah, I need a cheaper one, no offense to the owner of the sight, but I'm not paying 619.95 shipped for a cowl hood.  My local place has one for 419.99 and I have seen them on trucks so I know they are nice and strong.  Just thought maybe someone new of a place that might have them on sell or something.

The 350 is a good deal, it's just that dang 150 freight thats killing me!  Do you do bundles on shipping stuff?  Say if I bought the hood, some carpet, some kick panels and maybe a few other things could it all ship for the 150?  If so that might make a difference.  Also, Do you ship it from you are is it a drop ship item from somewhere else?

I can bundle pretty much any sheetmetal for the same shipping cost, I don't keep the hoods in stock so they are drop shipped.  I probably haven't sold a hood in a year.  The shipping generally is the killer therefore I don't keep them here.

Thanks, I dont need any other metal stuff.  But I do like the price of your carpet and some other items.  Just waiting on Uncle Sam to cough up my return!
