Last month we tackled taking out the windshield. This month we will attempt to properly install a gasket and windshield so that no leaks will occur. Installing it properly will assure you of a super sealed, weather tight windshield. You must be patient and generous with the sealer. This is one job you don't want to do twice.

We are constantly pulling in new cars. Last week we just found these two beauties. Parts are going fast so if you need something I'd call and claim it before the other guy does! Here's a short list of good parts on the cars:

My son walked in to the office the other day with an old Chevy part in his hand and asked, "Dad, how much is this worth?" I looked at the part and then back at my son and said with a smile "Don't know, guess you're gonna have to sell it to find out!" I'm actually quite amazed at the direction the entire hobby has gone.

It was 1971 – I'd finally finished college and I was excited to get started in life. The Vietnam war was not over yet and I anticipated getting drafted since I'd already received one draft notice. I had really grown to love cars while I was in college where I bought a 1940 Ford 2-door Deluxe Sedan that I developed into a little street rod. It was powered by a small block Chevy. Next, I had a ‘67 mustang in which I suped up a 289 and added ported and polished heads. My partner and close friend Doug Moorhead was really into the Chevrolet scene and we'd actually picked up a ‘57 Chevy along the freeway and dropped a 409 cu. in engine into it. It was our first real undertaking and it taught us a lot. We just liked old cars - they were fun and we began to watch what was happening in the hobby. We attended car shows, hit the drag strips and just did what a lot of guys our age were doing. We had never considered turning our hobby into a business. What brought about the change were two events that I'll never forget.

Have you ever purchased a project car from another state only to discover that when it arrived at your place it was a lemon?

I make a living selling old Chevy parts and I have been doing this since the early 1970s. What started as a hobby exploded into a massive community of fellow classic Chevrolet car buffs.
