Hood hinge. LH side I believe. Was loose though so had it rebuilt then phosphate coated anyway.

**kwmech** · 04-08-2021, 10:55 AM

Every time I call them they laugh at me. Locally they don't have anything unless the vehicle is newer than a 2010. When GM burned all their vendors a few years back by filing BK a lot of parts went away-----forever.

It's actually easier to get parts for my 50 year old trucks than it is my 91 Suburban.

I never tell them the vehicle that I am working on. I provide them with current valid part numbers. You can verify part numbers via gmpartsdirect.com. To look up parts numbers, gmpartswiki.com is invaluable.

The only way my local parts guy could get it at the time was to take overnight delivery. Routine orders were not being accepted at that time d/t virus related back log at the Lansing SPO warehouse.

**BigBird05** · 04-08-2021, 08:59 PM

When I was working at the Lansing SPO warehouse in the 70's, you would have cried at the parts that we put in the crusher. Obsolete after 9 years.

**1970cstblazer** · 04-09-2021, 07:40 AM

Please stay on topic. Share if you have bought a new GM part from the dealer recently, and part number too.

**Seanext** · 04-09-2021, 09:43 AM

Local dealer here will help but you have to have a valid part number, was able to order the spring that holds the clutch fork onto the ball mounted on the bellhousing came in a package of 5 sorry don't have the number handy.

**71CHEVYSHORTBED402** · 04-09-2021, 12:58 PM

I've never bought a local original part in my life. I take it back, found a defrost vent 25 years ago at the wrecking yard, the guy says shoot, I didn't know it was there

There aren't many trucks locally and the wrecking yards cleared of them a long time ago. I remember wrecking yard that had quite a few. He ended up scrapping what was left, and apparently a local repop. dumped tons of OEM decades ago as well. If they only knew.

**MikeB** · 04-09-2021, 09:27 PM

Funny. This thread reminds me of when I bought my 69 C10 back in 1989. I could still buy just about any part you can think of from my Chevy dealer.

Outer grille ($120-something)
Cab mount bushings
Cam, lifters, and timing set
Gasket set
TH350 frame-to-trans shift bracket
Wheel bearings and races

And lots more small parts I've forgotten about.

I was able to talk one of the counter guys into giving me jobber pricing for the used car lot where I bought the truck, so my price was 25% off list or better.

I picked up my C-10 same year. There were one of these trucks on every block locally. Now I see one occasionally. I bought my grilles off "Chevyland" in Sacramento about the same time for $250ish.

And that was inner and outer, right?

**1970cstblazer** · 04-11-2021, 10:35 AM

Added more to the list as I find time to verify availability

Yep. I drove my C10 there from about 100 out because I had thoughts of a bed plastic bed liner

for my old bed. They or a yard next door? said they had one. Sure, with a 4 foot long crack in it. Engine was running HOT, must have been 100 some out, the engine was tired anyway and I had the heater running.

Couple years later I bought 15x8 Rally's, with caps that are almost fully chrome out of Sacramento too. If I remember right the wheels are stamped 1992. Bolts too, that I can't seem to find at the moment

, think I had them zinc plated forgot to list em

Decent caps and the wheels great. I paid $300ish shipped.

SMOKING deal on NOS caps and bolts for sure, just four years ago too @ $150 & not a mark on them. Deals were out there until recently for the most part. The two stainless (73) version NOS caps I picked up four years ago run 3-4x my cost. I need two more

Nice to have the option

Brings back some memories of my Michigan days. When I was 17, I rode my bike to the local GM warehouse (Drayton Plains, MI) and bought with my dads GM id, a pass side brand new fender for my 72 swb for $69.38 cents and holding it with one arm and riding it back home on my bike.

The last I heard, they stock nothing over 3 yrs old now. The good old days are gone
