Why this forum???
« on: November 29, 2012, 06:54:35 PM »
Starting this forum to help us early Chevy/GM guys locate parts.  It has been tough locating parts for my 33 Chevy Master ie different from a 33 Standard, different from a 32, different from a 34-35 etc. Talking with other early Chevy guys I feel a need for a forum to centralize those old GM parts.  Some of the Chevy purists want nothing to do with hotrods,  I dont care if you are restoring a classic, building a hotrod, ratrod, lowrider or if even you voted for Obama! (Lied about the last one)
 
We can locate Ford new, used and reproduction parts without much research...a different story for the vintage GM stuff.
 
Working on a new header and other features...but the forum can  be used right now... just beginning to get the word out now.
 
Thanks

I'm sure glad ghost28 sent me here. I have a few parts I'm thinking about selling, Also I'm looking for some.
I enjoy this forum dedicated to just Chevrolet's.
Anybody can build a Ford.

I used some Ford stuff on my car too, Billy. But I promise on the grill I am putting a Chevrolet badge!! ;)
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn
