Listed this here to get more attention but sorry if I am wrong in doing so. I am looking for a swb chassis and figured I would see what came up from the members here before buying new. Prefer if it was in southern New England or NY. PM me if you think you might have something. repairable would be o.k. thanks

You can have mine. It's in WV and free. It's pictured in my "One Man, One Wrench" thread. It's repairable in the same sense that the Titanic could be raised from the briny depths and returned to transoceanic service. Anything is possible and it is free.

For what it's worth, the seller is a guy named Richard. I've dealt with him on other parts. Very above board, great guy. He's in the boonies though. At least for a city boy like me!

I agree he is a great guy and is a good friend of mine who lives nearby. Just so happens that he is from the same town as my wife in the U.K. He offered it to me but I am kind of on a budget and looking for something cheap if anyone has one.

I've bought used parts from Richard at Rover Resource too- he is a good guy to deal with.

I just don't think a used frame would be worth the effort. If someone has replaced it, it is probably beyond repair. They are like Fiats they rust from the inside out and all the ones that I have ever seen after replacement were total crap. Just my 2P.

I saw this ad the other day, maybe he will sell the frame separately. It looks like it will need work though, I do see a hole in LH front...
