[AMC-list] Trip to Doug Galvin's

[Joe Fulton <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I drove up to Lodi to Galvin's place of business yesterday to pick up a 
reconditioned gas tank fror my 62 Classic wagon.   I had a little trouble 
finding the place using "old fashined" Google maps.  I own a GPS and have a new 
Ipad II, both gifts from my sons, but I'm too lazy to take them with me and use 
them.  Can't understand the vocal commands on the GPS anyway due to 60+ year old 
ears. 


Doug's place is crammed full of AMC parts and he says the economy hasn't really 
affected his business this year.  His catalog carries many/most of his new and 
reporduction parts but you need to know that he has several parts cars out back 
and lots of used parts in racks.   I also bought a hood from that 62 Classic 
wagon rather than try to straighten the hood on my car.  I already have an NOS 
grille so maybe her smile will be properly restored some day in the not too 
distant future.  Doug plans to be at a couple more shows this fall including the 
Nevada AMC show near Las Vegas in November, but he may not take many parts with 
him.  He said he'd rather pass out business cards and have time to look at the 
cars.   


He has a very nice but dirty 65 Ambo wagon that is for sale.   He's getting the 
title straightened out now, so contact him if you're interested.
