What's a fair price to pay for a rust free (repaired) sub-frame ?

Hey Errol;
Mate I'm with you I wish the prices were what they used to be before people started to think they could make a living off of "rare very rare" parts.

If it wasn't for generous forum members both on here and the FE/FC Forum I would still not have a subchassis and decent gaurds and bonnet for my ute project.

My brothers first car was an FC he paid $35 and got a spare engine :grinnn:

I'm with you Clay roll back the clock. Petrol was $0.39 a litre for standard in the early 80's and no one was interested in FB Holdens then they were cheap and plentiful.
