After looking around for almost a year for a 2 wheel drive donor (not a real high ticket item here in the Northwest) I started looking around for parts I wanted on my Rodster®. Here's a list of resources I used, if there is anyone who would like to add to the list your more than welcome to email me and I'll add it with credits to you.
