Do any of you know anything about a parts place called G parts? I got and e-mail that they had a rear end for my 55 Fairlane, I don't want to buy a pig in a poke. Thought maybe some may know about them, located in Iowa. Al

I just googled them. Nothing came up except this conversation. I'd delete the email and certainly DO NOT click on any links it contains, it's a phishing attack.

You're welcome. We grumps have to stick together these days...

Why don't you call CTC auto Ranch in Denton, Tx and ask them if they have what you want. Their salvage yard has lots of antique cars. Its somewhere north of Dallas/Ft Worth I think.

You got that right. Every thing I've got is sticking together, our AC is out 96 deg. waiting on them to bring new unit, he said today. I'm still waiting.

OK Dave that's good info. Got to pay for AC unit before I can get a rear end for my car.Al

I would stay away from "G PARTS"....i got a message from them this week on an item I had messaged about in the "wanted" section of our Ford Barn. I am looking for throttle linkage for std trans 272 y-block. "G PARTS" sent me an email claiming to have just what I needed. I asked for a picture first , they send me a vague , far away picture , that did not even come close to looking like Ford parts. Haven't heard from them since. I would stay away from them.

Sometimes it's best to ask questions first, thanks. Al
