Been trying to call them all day and there phone just make weird noises. I need early grease fittings for my 32. Are they always hard to get a hold of?

Sounds like you're calling their FAX number....

Old Redneck · 11-19-2018, 05:21 PM

The only number I have found 860 693 0112

petehoovie · 11-19-2018, 05:39 PM

Yeah, I tried that number and I get the same thing as you. It's the only number they provide on a internet search....

There’s an old thread on here with the same #. It also says in that thread that they can be difficult to get on the phone...Mark

I'm pretty sure they're closed on Monday.

Also worth noting is that it is a part-time effort for Al's son, not a store front business.

I believe he is working by himself now, no helper, but still dedicated to his business.

Last time I was there a couple months ago it was business as usual.

Here is another number to try. 1-860-693-2620. I spoke with Allen for quite a while at Hershey. He did lose his main man, and is doing what he can by himself. He is open
Tuesday through Thursday afternoon. He lives in New Jersey, but the business is in Connecticut. He does like to be home with his family when he can. Bob, his main man, has been known to drive from Portland, Connecticut, for 2 hours in a snow storm to get to work. Be thankful that Bob, and Allen care enough about the hobby to put in the hours that they do. A & L has been making quality Model A parts for many years, and sells them at reasonable price. These parts are made in the USA, and the quality shows it. A lot of the parts that A & L make, they are the only manufacture producing them. Nice parts at reasonable prices. How can you complain about that.
