4001 body on ebay

I was think about taking a shot at this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7340870403&fromMakeTrack=true

Really, all I want is the output jackplate for my 75 fretless. I'm wondering how drastic the armrest contour is to make the body nice again. Might have to be turned into an S body? I won't it want if the price gets too crazy.

Joey, I emailed you about another jackplate that was on the 'bay last week...trying to get you the hookup!!

Steve, I didn't get that email. What email addy did you send it to?

Thanks, I do appreciate the heads up, I wish I saw that!

Charly will you be needing the jackplate?

Nah, I just wanna get started. If I don't get this one, I'll get the one with no headstock at Jammin Jersey's.

Joey-

I have an extra jackplate from a '77 4001 if that does you any good.

All right!!!! That's getting it done! Very kind of you, Jeff, your karma just went up a few notches!

More than just a few notches.

Jeff, I can't thank you enough, I hope I can eventually do something equally as cool for you.

If I get this body, it'll be mapleglo soon!

Hey no problem, Joey. Its not doing me any good sitting around in a box! I'm glad I could do something to get another old Rick up and jammin'. Please post a photo of the fretless when you get it together.

And thanks for the Karma points, guys. I could use them to make up for some of the ebay auctions I've won!

Good luck Charly on this item. Was this originally an Autumnglo do you think? It looks too dark on the back to have originally been Fireglo.
