Re: Philly/ SE PA guys Check In!
If the Macungie Auksfest hasn't happened yet, that'd be a good start for parts, then Hershey in October

Re: Philly/ SE PA guys Check In!
Oh, and there is also a pretty big thread on PA HAMBers- you'll have to sift a bit, but you'll find the guys living close to you.
Where are you in Philly?

Re: Philly/ SE PA guys Check In!
Wow didn't expect so many replies so quickly. I actually live right outside of kutztown and was at Mcungie this past weekend admiring the cars. I used to live in Philly and went to school there but came up to the country for some relaxation.
I'm specifically looking for a grille for my 55 Plymouth plaza. I was told 54-56 plaza/ savoy/ suburban/ and belvedere grilles will fit. Also need the hood trim piece for just above the grille. Also, what special considerations do our cars get during inspection? My car came from jersey which didn't require inspection and I'm scrambling to finish her up and meet code. I'm guessing I need working wipers and horn right? What about gauges? Are they required? The car was converted to 12v and therefore has a few electrical gremlins to sort out. I suppose as a reward for helping answer these and making me feel so welcome I'll post a pic of my girl on another one of my toys.  And yes, she is a pinup model/ makeup/ hairstyler for shoots.

Re: Philly/ SE PA guys Check In!
I don't drink anymore, but I'll gladly share any knowledge I have with you. Stop by the shop anytime and let me know what your interested in doing or bring what you need worked on. I'll PM you my cell #. I'm in the shop most days from 9:00 AM until I get too tired to work on my own stuff at night.
Can't wait to meet up. |
