The price of the W8 pan skyrocketed over the past couple months at GVWAP, but shipping is still $20.

Default a comment....

Its too bad the torque converters and chain tensioners on those cars could not experience the same type of success. They seem to be a give-a-way on the used market and probably for good reason.

Default I've been looking for a bead roller and sheet metal brake to start my own production

If I can get the equipment used or at a great price that I can recoup the money after 20-30 units I'll do it and make galvanized and/or aluminum ones.
