Repops Automotive Reproductions

Via the Arkansas C10 FB page I discovered an American/Arkansas company.

Repops Automotive Reproductions is located in Mena, Arkansas.

http://www.repops.com/index.cfm

They manufacture a lot of the foam seals, glove boxes, woodgrain, etc. that we use.

Re: Repops Automotive Reproductions

I’ve been using their parts for over a decade. Excellent quality.

Re: Repops Automotive Reproductions

I got their set for my AC box. I had to trim just a little bit on one piece, but overall it was a good set..

Re: Repops Automotive Reproductions

I've seen the name but I don't think I knew they were a manufacturer in AR. Do they sell to the public or through dealers? They don't give prices or product description in their online catalog.

Re: Repops Automotive Reproductions

They only sell through dealers. I have been using their products, but somehow missed the somewhat local connection.

Mena is where Mark Campbell's Street and Performance was, and is still the home of Brodix cylinder heads and engine parts.

I have been recommending RePops brand door window seals for a long time. They aren't all floppy and limp like the other brands....

I posted this back in 2013 (post #14)

I don't know about the doors but these are the best window felts/sweeps I have found. Made in the USA by Clark Industries, Pearcy, AR and go by the "Repops" brand.

The only difference in the two sets is one is stainless and one is chrome plated stainless...

There may be other vendors on here that sell the same brand (I hope they post up if they do) but I think the manufacturer is pretty selective who they let distribute the product.

I borrowed the pictures and links from another thread.

Arkansas's own little Motor City of sorts. I didn't know Street & Performance went out. I just went looking and see no posts since 2016 on their FB page. Last thing I read was a guy asking if anyone knows why their not answering their phone, and another saying they're not in business anymore. That's a shame. They helped a lot of people easily run TPI/700r4s in older vehicles.

So it's "ask for Repops" when I do my doors.

Re: Repops Automotive Reproductions

I used Re-pops brand window felts on both my '71 Chevelle and '57 Chevy 2 dr. sedan. Very satisfied with results on both.

Word on the street is, they're the only window strips that go all the way to the glass. Talked to him once, super nice cat.
