Yeah I was thinking about your situation and location when I wrote that, knowing that it would be more difficult there. You have a lot of cool stuff going on and everything you said makes sense to me. It may be worth a weekly update to your thread noting progress as well as referencing that frame need. Maybe you can leave that work until just before you paint it. I'm sure that there are a number of guys that have parts trucks. Even I do, and I would happily send you a chunk if I had stripped it down that far and couldn't sell the frame as a whole. There have got to be guys on here with bent frames, hit in the back, that could sell you a chunk from the front. I would read other people's build threads who are combining two or more trucks. I can think of a couple right off the top of my head. PM those guys and I'm confident you'll land a piece.
