Looking for a pair of brackets off a 10 bolt to replace the brackets on a 66 12 bolt. The holes for the control arm bushings were a little worn, so someone welded 4 thick washers for a repair. I am thinking of repaceing those brackets by have a good pair welded on axel tubes.
I saw a good 10 bolt with good brackets last week; but the guy wanted $200. I thought that was a little high, as the only thing else I could use was a pair of good packing plates. Thinking more like $100 or less for a good 10 bolt. What is the 10 bolt worth as scrap? Is it still around $.10/ lb or has it increased?

I sold a '65 10 bolt that came under my '70 to Enganeer a while back for $50. I think he still has it and might be willing to part with it.
That's interesting about the washers. I did that to the original axle in my first '70 SS. The PO had installed solid arms for drag racing and they wore the holes oblong.
