In other news, I just picked up a free power steering set up for it from a guy who couldn't sell it. I'm reasonably sure 95% of it is there, it just needs a reservoir.

They need a complete restore but considering how rare they are, I figure it's worth it.

Where did you find them? | | | Re: What Did You do To your Van Today? | Joined: Jul 2019 Posts: 11,241 Likes: 412 Post Junkie | Post Junkie Joined: Jul 2019 Posts: 11,241 Likes: 412 | Bought a set of Patriot side pipes yesterday. Summit wouldn't ship them to California; Jegs did. Once I get them after some welding work - off to Oklahoma at Jet-Hot for some ceramic coating. Will do the same when I get my headers. This place is off the hook. Check out their website and videos.
Started the powertrain build in February. "Hope" to be done in September. Complete Powertrain build and entire new suspension. Sorry I haven't posted pics; I still don't know how and at the end I will have a whole lot and if I can't figure it out I'll have someone help. | 1 member likes this:

Where did you find them? I was lucky and found them on marketplace. I think they were spot welded with the lenses installed because there is no way to get them out without breaking the lenses. I am going to see if the guy who is making bubbles for me can cut the old welds and make me new bubbles, then weld them back up. I'll restore them and resell to someone for their ride.

That's wild they wouldn't ship, but it makes sense because CA's laws around emissions are so strict. I had the same problems when I was buying pipes for my chopper. No one would ship them to me in CA until I found a dude on Amazon. He was located in the south somewhere and he shipped them no problem.
