I would rather deal with a dusty part than a rusty part anyday....  |
You can ask before you buy where it's made. I already know with these repro parts,or should I say I know what few parts "are" made here. But,I ask if I don't know then decide.
Sad but true,it's pretty much impossible to live the way we live w/o buying foreign. You can do your best to avoid it. I do. I've grew up enjoying American and foreign products since the '50s. I mean,I want a cookoo clock from the black forest,not my hometown. But,it's come to our jobs going overseas to save little to none. Things aren't cheaper. The profit margin just expanded.
My '67 GMC project is 100% good used GM sheetmetal. What isn't GM on the rest of the truck is still pretty much all made in USA. Not sure about some things
