This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    National Parts Depot, Chevelle catalog online, page 57, item 5382, cost $39.95. I have bought several pair from them, they work great, yes all A bodies, Buick, Olds, Pontiac, Chevy are the same.

    I'll post a link but not sure it will go to where you need to be. No, the link only gets you to the Chevelle catalog page.

    if that was directed towards me, I think they cost me about $30 and I can't weld.

    I'm not argueing with you though, if you can weld it's cheaper, i got lucky.
