I did call Chevy of the 40s yesterday. Doug told me that there is a waiting list now for the carrier. They ARE listed but currently have NO supplier. When I asked for details he wasn’t sure what happened but offered a retirement, supplier out of business etc. He did say he really didn’t know exactly what happened. He took my name to be added to a list of 20. He said they order when they get 30-50 orders/requests. But if they have NO supplier, then what? Seems like I might be SOL with this company. Although he did say when they hear something they would contact me/us. Hmmmm?
Appears the best alternatives are salvage yards, someone willing to part with pieces or the entire unit, fabricate something or look into coil overs suggestion.
Think I’ll call American Classic Truck Parts–who knows?
Yep, Tim is right on. The 47-50 carrier is much different. I’ve got to check tho, I’ve wondered if the 3100s from possibly 41-46 Art Deco trucks were the same and would work.
