Hi all,
Need some new parts for the '75 that include a radiator, support
corner-cushions, throttle cable, and maybe even the foam seals that direct
the air into the fan shroud. Eckler's seems to be the least expensive
except for the radiator which is cheaper from one of the local parts chain
stores. Anyone have any experiences with these items. i.e.. = GM wants
$104 for a reproduction throttle cable while Eckler's repro. is around $59.
Mid America, and Paragon prices are also higher. TIA

I buy stuff from Eckler's all the time, but I've never thought of my car as
an NCRS project. I do keep original stuff I've replaced, like the exhaust,
the Bose, etc. just in case. The only part I bought from GM that I can
remember was the optispark, which I got from gmpartsdirect.com.

YMMV.

you may also want to check Doc Rebuild (www.docrebuild.com).

Their catalog alone is a must have even if you use it for nothing
except reference

The illustrations are great .... no shirts,no hats, no nothing... but
parts....
