So are the new "reproduction bumpers" offered today made with Chevy (GM) original stamps and dies? Do they have the Bow Tie on the inside? Then they would have to be licensed by Chevy, and called reproduction parts. If not, then they are replicas... (or are they excused 'cause they were never on the car when the dealer took delivery?) ...like the way I got back on the thread... :p

Some clubs/people want the original screews and washers, etc. used under the dash. I (limited budget) try to get the car as original as I can, but I can't afford to make it "perfect" (whatever that means) to the day it rolled off the lot in '32. In the future someone (son, grandson, etc.) could make the car "more original".  It's like I start the car on the path and don't do anything that will destory originality. Its' like the doctor's oath "I will do no harm...". Remember now the 'string' is about fashion, so almost anything goes.

Yeah guys, add my Dad to that list.  JunkYardDog you are right. Every time he went to the doctor's office he came back totally shot. They advised him not to do this and that until he wound up sitting on the couch until he died. He passed two years ago and we are still getting the bills! Hey Gator, hope you didn't get the same treatment at your visit. Don't listen to them. Life is too short. Enjoy and NEVER give in!

 JunkYardDog, sorry to hear about your friends, as well. Any time I want to talk to the greatest mechanic in the world, I just go down to the garage and he'll be there alright. Hey, my dog's Vet has got to be one of the most straight foward, plane talking guys I know. How come all the human Doc's can't be like that? Bye the way...Is it fasionable to say HAPPY THANKSGIVING? Well have the biggest, overstuffed Turkey you can eat! But save the giblets for the dog!

Gator, With all those horns and driving lights are you going to change the body type to HOG!
