You can buy a rebuilt box from Brewers for $99 exchange, but the 2 I
have don't match the ones they sell and they want an EXACT exchange.
Jeg's sells the one I want new for $137...that's pretty cheap, I think,
since I'm not restoring the car correctly.

Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person. I.e., send parts/car transactions and negotiations as well as other personal messages only to the intended recipient, not to the Clubhouse public address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine tune the content signal to Mopar topic. Thanks!
