Default Where to buy parts for 1st Gen.

Hello,

New to this form and new to the Chevy scene. We are GeMoFo Racing! Owners of a '68 Camaro, '74 Barracuda and a '66 Mustang Fastback... GeMoFo!

So... we know where and whom to buy parts from for the Ford and Mopar scene but have a clouded view of the Chevy arena. Can't even find a decent magazine for only 1st Gen stuff. Any ideas on where to buy the proverbial headlight rings, radio bezel and Trunk Monkey stuff?

Thanks and we look forward to being a part of the Chevy Nation!

Sappronie

Portland Area.

Know all of the usual, as you have mentioned, and have accounts with them. Looking for the "CJ Pony" (for Fords) of the Chevy world. The other options are too much and too mainstream.

Another that you might look into is Firewheel Classics in Texas... I've dealt with them and gotten amazing service.
