Go with what YBR350 says- I have recieved my repro saginaw xmember and linkages from Tony, he is a really skilled craftsman, and keeps contact and is prompt.

I can't find mention of "yappa", do you have any more details?
That Tony guy seems ok but his stuff is too expensive, $1000 for a crossmember with no shifter!! Is he nuts????

Yeah, but his work is really good, and the only reason why you get people like that making crossmembers is because anything Monaro related commands high prices.. Bite the bullet and grab one while he still makes them. At least you'll know it will fit perf
