I need a few odds and ends and all my typical sources for parts seem to have dried up.

Rich,

There is a place pretty close to me and I believe they ship. It's called Vintage Chevy Trucks and you can find them at: http://www.vintagechevytrucks.com/index2.html or call them at 510-651-5874. I've dealt with them a couple of times and they seem to be pretty good folks.

Hope it helps.
Bill

try www.67-72chevytrucks.com and also try craigslist and ebay. If I can remember I`ll post a link that has tons of listings for 67-72 chevy and gmc trucks on ebay.

will anything you need come off of a 74? I have a K10 I'm parting out for the drive train pieces and engine.

I need the lens for the gear selector indicator on the steering column. They changed it in 71 so it would have to be from a 67-70 I believe. It's not yet reproduced.

He called me back, he's got what I need. To make it worth while on shipping costs I'm going to put together a moderately sized order and get a few extra things I need too. Thanks for the connection Bill. :thumbsup:

Rich - You are welcome. After all, that's part of what Team Chevelle is all about... helping each other out. I've still learned a whole lot more than I've put in. Bill
