Hi Everyone I have a 1977 GMC pickup 1500, 454 Engine I'm having a big problem in the provision of original spare parts (GM) Where can I find (GM) spare parts Genuine Thank you to everyone
? Like GM parts, What parts. As you may know a lot of parts there not being maded. But there still a fair amount out there. Motor? Body? Electrical? Drive train? Inner trim? E-Bay or places like this site or DEALER still have some parts. good luck
Pontiac1976 Thank you for the passage of . I am now trying to rebuild the engine and interior, I have looked at eBay and other sites are great, but, I can not find GM parts Thanks again
Try www.obschevy.com or www.gmperformanceparts.com . Are you trying for a 100% stock show truck? If not there are plenty of aftermarket parts to rebuild your 454 and make it perform better than it did in 1977 and for less money than GMPP. I'm a big fan of resto mods. Keep the stock look but build it to run like an animal
I try to re-building the truck engine to return as it was its original condition. I do not care about money as much as quality care I have looked at those locations, but did not find anything benefit me. Thank you anyway, my friend
You have to say What it is that you need ! you were asked but didn't respond . Mechanical Hard parts are easily available through NAPA or other onLine parts sources and for soft parts , interior trims and so on , you just have to wade through thousands of Flea-Bay listings , sooner or later , most everything pops up . Patience is necessary here .
Thank you for the passage of I really searched a lot, I did not find what I want. All I want is, (GM) Genuine spare parts for this old PICKUP . All Web sites that I search in. I can not find where the GM spare parts . Thanks again
I Tried But you didn't answer my question ~ " Genuine GM spare parts " is a useless reply ~ if you need a specific part , then you'll get somewhere as your truck is made up of roughtly 47,000 different Genuine GM parts . Saying " I need the Seierra burled wood dash insert " would help . Or maybe " a AC fuel pump for a 454 CI V-8 W/ AC " - like that . I'm a parts guy in addition to being a Journeyn Mechanic so I know this stuff (old Mechanics sometimes retire to the parts room) . trust me : the guys here KNOW THEIR STUFF and will help you but you have to ask answerable questins to begin with . Example : ' I'd like to find an original U-Joint for my '49 Chevy 3100 with SM420 (4 speed) transmission ' . See ? it's easy ~ the 4 speed tranny takes a different U-Joint than does the speed tranny ~ both will fit but only the correct one will do as my truck is still a working rig . Good luck , I hope this all makes sense to you .
If these sites don't have it then it is no longer made by GM. http://www.gmperformanceparts.com/ http://www.acdelco.com http://www.gmrestorationparts.com
Genuine Spare Parts Genuine is a box in a lot of cases. Example: GM, Buys from A Vendor with specific specs. These parts are made to GM specifications by a given vendor for the production run buy the best price for the part. one year or run the part. Let's use valve cover gasket for an example. Victor gaskets may have made this for them for 1 to 10 years when they may have been out bid by Felpro. Switches, Bearings,etc will be out sourced, to a given vendor for a given run on a production vehicle. Sheet metal and hinges etc are most of the time produced by a GM, company owned producer example" Body by Fisher". Most and 'I stress Most'( there are those which are very sub standard these go out of business fast usually or quickly up grade) after market parts have a 'spec' which make these parts compatible to fit and performance. I have found, remember this is my experience others may differ, in some cases aftermarket is better than stock or OEM. If your after Parts to restore and or show your Vehicle go with the sites that were listed in the answer concerning "obsolete Parts" or as in 'darbos' post, they are a very good source for your parts. But if this is a daily driver, use your GOOD local after market supplier. There are a lot Of Good reproduction suppliers around, Like this forum's sponsor, a very good supplier, Classic Parts. Their parts man and women are very good, in my experience. If your after specific parts take a good picture and post it here with a good description of it's location in your vehicle and I'm sure someone her would be happy to help you out! I hope I helped? Good luck and have fun in you endeavor!!
drabo, ty so much, I found some pieces . Reinovator, Thank you from the depths of my heart, you showed me the right way and good opinion. I hope that you live forever .
Classic Parts has some GM Stuff. You might can call and ask them, as it doesnt say which is which in their catalogs... I was pleasantly surprised how much stuff I've ordered from Here came in GM boxes... Though as the supply dwindles I'm sure they would goto an aftermarket piece.
78 chevyradoThank you very much, and I appreciate that. Maybe I will try to contact them if I could not find something on the Internet.
