Just bought a 69 'bird. After going through it more thoroughly after purchase (yes, stupid, stupid, stupid), I discovered cracks in the rear frame rails - both sides. I found replacements on Ecklers for approx $200 per side. Is this a good deal and are they good quality? There are a few cheaper ones on Ebay, but they don't look to be as good of quality. Thanks!
What's the link address of '69 Bird or pics of your car?
This is my old pic of '67 1/2 Firebird (7/27/67) w/ '74 Pontiac 400/400 on Jan 1st, '90. She had original Tyrol Blue Ext. with Std. Dark Blue Int., 326 2bbl, 4spd, 2 traction bars, 1 of 6,078 built in '67. I'm the current owner of '67 Firebird 400 coupe with original code F-400 Option, 1 of 22,636 built in '67 with rare T400. My brother & I picked her up and brought her to my new home. It's original eng. & trans. are long gone. Has factory K-Gulf Turquoise under primer, had Ivory vinyl top. Has factory RH traction bar w/ 3.08 gear, J-custom option with original Deluxe Parchment Int., has rare fold down rear seat. I'll look for a good running '67 400/400 when it's done.

We must have been in the same class LOL,I found out my frame rails where rotten too after i bought it. A Previous owner cleaned them up and bondoed them smooth.found out when i brought the car in for a safety inspection,they put it on the lift and the frame rail squashed. I got my replacements from earlybirds in Toronto ,but try classic industries,National parts depot,Ames.
