1950 speedo cable question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm a firm believer in try to buy local first then find out who online has the best product for the best price including shipping and handling. On Hard parts or replacement parts Rock Auto usually has first rate brands and or item plus several offerings in many cases.

My comment was primarily because we do have guys who think that because the trucks are old you have to go through a specialty house and pay a premium for many common replacement parts that you can walk into a local parts house and buy over the counter for a fair price. Always price shop though.
