That's too bad. In the early days, they were the go-to vendor in my area and always great to work with. I tried to buy as much stuff from them I could, but it was going to be tough going forward when CPP and POL established their online truck parts presence, along with RideTech and others carving up the other parts of the suspension market.

Damn. Was gonna redo my 65 this year with their parts. Such a bummer.

Gosh, I almost had a heart-attack!

It's a bummer to hear about them closing up shop. I think they had the best customer service out of all of the vendors I have ordered from. (Practically all of them.lol.) they were knowledgeable, courteous, and easygoing. Their showroom was cool. And one of only a few vendors that sold square tube aftermarket trailing arms for 67-72 pickups. While not the cheapest around, they sold quality brand name parts.

I bought a BUNCH of stuff from GSPP when I first got my truck back in the mid 80’s. GSPP was the only place selling anything for ‘60-‘66 trucks in those days and selection was limited to say the least. It was a sad day when they closed up.

So very sorry to hear this, they were the BEST.
