They do show up on some automotive sites on their list of
businesses that do work for them, Brodix for one, thought
they had something to do with gaskets and polyforming.
Your not going to find the specs you're looking for Dan, those
went in the dumper along with all the other drawing years
ago. Same as trying to find anyone that worked as a line
worker, engineer, etc., their all a thing of the past also. In
all the years I've been involved in restoration of
cars/trucks/radios/machines, I've never run into anyone that
was involved in any of the industries. I think they have to
sign a confidentiality agreement before they leave under
penalty of death.
I've reported on my experience with vendors a few time, but
there is a problem with that. One bad customer encounter can
really put the hurt on an other wise good business with the
possibility of hundreds of thousands reading it. The
intangible factor is personality. An oil and water mix of
vendor and customer often gives the wrong impression. Most of
the time, when we read a review, we can't tell which one was
the oil or which one was the water, sometimes both and
sometimes someone steps in as an emulsifier.
Many time the people I disliked when I first meet them turned
out to be best of friends after I learned more about them.
