Yes, it is great. Just got some parts from Year One for
my musclecar-era '66 Plymouth. No end of parts for my '56 Brand-F's
either.
With scrap prices high, every day I see huge loads of old cars
going to the shredder. All-American, a local 20 acre classic yard, has
crushed all its MoPars. My favorite all MoPar yard, Wildcat, has
crushed a couple hundred cars, mostly '70's.
If you need forward look parts, particularly body parts, get
them now because it doesn't look like there'll be a tomorrow.

There are similar 900 page catalogs for my 70 Olds Cutlass.
The problem is, a lot of the repro stuff turns out to be cheap junk.

Subject: [FWDLK] Classic industries big
book
I just got in the
mail a huge 900 + page catalog from "classic industries" for the full size
Chevrolet cars 1958/1996.....
Man how this would
change our world if they had a 900 page book for "forward look" Mopars
1955/1961!!!!
One could just order
up emblems and sheet metal, or door inserts and steering wheels and horn rings or intakes and
carbs "oh my" !!! on and on it would go.....
Would that make our
cars less of what they are to us??
For me a great deal
of the allure is getting the parts I need and renewing them or finding
someone to renew them for me at a price I can afford....
However would it not
be nice to hit up one web site or catalog and order that bezel that one
needed or piece of trim that would finish the car!
This would be
something a kin to Gary Goers but on steroids and in the 21st
century!!!
Anyone have a lot of
capital and a talent for this sort of work want to partner
up???
Speaking of Gary I
envision his shop like a kid envisions Santa's shop! I would buy a ticket
just to see it.....
