Wow, crazier story than my non-stop R/T to Mannford OK and coming home in a blizzard..
Super cool how this worked out for you and really good to hear of all the community help along the way.
6 years ago, I bought an NOS, left '67 rs fender from Craig/Bob and had a good experience with them as well. Very fairly priced for a really hard to find fender too. Picked up a number of other small stuff as long as I was there...yes, another non-stop R/T to Aurora NY.
Addictive behavior, ? I know not what you speak of...
