Hey guys,

Ph/Fax 315 986 7121

They are $2.25 each.

The import forms ask for month of manufacture and GVWT including front and rear axle. The owner wasn't ...

I'm new to this forum; having just stumbled in. My second car was a '59 4dr Savoy. Bought new in '58, sold in '64 with 33,000 miles. My 50th class reunion is five years from now (2009) and I'm planning to show up in a '59 Plymouth. Is the Canadian car still available?
