Frame building bits.

[Grannygrinder]

Are frame parts such as drop outs readily available? I bought a gt frame that a previous owner/butcher has hacked the rear dropout about on so that he could use a non standard mech hanger. I'd like to hack the drop outs off and weld on some sliding ones for another bout of single speed action. anybody know where I can get some? Ta.
