Hello all, in conjunction to a earlier post this week about replacing chassis parts I need to change direction. I really don't need parts I need a chassis. I've look around before and I think I want the Marshland for it's being closest original.
During the process of a chassis exchange does most everyone reuse existing components or start off fresh.
If my thinking is wrong about the chassis, please advise
 
When I re chassis'ed Noel, I used a Richards chassis (👍👍👍)
And replaced all bushes, engine and gearbox mounts , brake pipes, clips/brackets etc with new.
 
Both the Richards and Marshland are available to me in the US pretty close to home.
Why would I choose one over the other?

Technically I could buy other nameless brand semi locally. A few hundred dollars cheaper but I'm not really interested, too afraid of poor workmanship.
