Peoplke do tend to think manufacturers or obligated to supply parts for older products but they really arent.Hopefully NOS parts will be bought out by someone in the restoration industry.Bob Cooke FORD in Hemmings Motor News is an example[buys and sells Ford inventories etc.].Now with enougfh demand someone will have a repro parts made.The trouble is they go right to China and its just not the same part.And the "scrap metal fever" sure is spreading with good stuff going to scrap for high prices.Not to mention thieves are ripping wires right out of pipe runs on construction sites evrywhere.Once "junkyards" became" auto recyclers" it was all down hill as far as even saving parts for reuse.I remember going in and being allowed to spend all day in a junkyard with my own tools unbolting stuff I needed then going in the office to pay.I dont even see that many junkyards.If I do they are filled with Hondas and Toyotas.You can just crush them cause there aint nobody restoring those cars anyhow. I also remember just going back into the woods and finding alot of cars for parts.I remember at about fifteen an older kid about seventeen coming back with a shovel to dig under and old Chrysler and get the Hemi motor out.Can you imagine finding an old car with a Hemi back in the woods today.Although a few years back there was photos on this website of a guy getting an old tractor off an island in the ice season.That you dont see everyday.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
