    Looking for someone from the L.A. area who may be heading to Phoenix in the next month. I'm buying a complete 55 Chevy front end from a fellow Hamber. I can make the trip but it would be great to find someone heading this way that has the room. I will gladly pay round trip gas, etc.
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Jim,
    Talk to Dave at So-Cal-AZ. So-Cal brings parts from LA all the time and they sometimes use a guy that makes runs back and forth. Dave may be willing to give you the guy's name so you can make your own arrangements.

    Dave at Socal AZ said they have to use a trucking co. for big stuff which requires crating. So that's not gonna work.

    Anyone making the drive out to Phoenix??

    I have a friend going out there in a couple weeks that might be able to do it.
    What part of the front end? sheet metal/suspension?

    The complete front clip (sheetmetal): fenders, hood, aprons, rad support, etc
    That would be cool, tell him his gas would be free!

    Is it V Young? i know he lives in camarillo.

    what kind of condition is the stuff in? Will it all fit in the back of a dodge dakota?
    I can go by his house on my way home from work and check it out since its on my way home just to make sure it will all fit.

    Yes, it's from Vic Youngs car.
    He is putting on a tilt fibergl*** front end.
    That might be kinda tight in a Dakota even if everything is apart. Maybe you can look and see what you think.

    I MIGHT have even better news for you. I have 2 friends that are going back there in 2 trucks so this might just work out if one of them isnt taking his motorcycles. I will call them both tonight and find out a date that they are going back.
    Have him contact me so i can go by and see what all is there.
