Yes! The big box auto parts franchises normally do not stock slow moving parts for vintage vehicles in their warehouse. A lot of the hard to get parts that your local auto parts says they can get for you comes from our vintage vendors like Chevs of the 40’s or JC. I talked with the people at JC this summer and wholesale of vintage parts is a large part of their business.
I run into this just this past summer with AD fuel tanks and water pumps.
In the long run I’ve found it easier to simply order it from our vintage vendors rather than try to save a few penny’s at FLAPS.
