As I mentioned previously, PartsGeek appears to be an aggregator, meaning they don't stock any parts of their own, nor do they have relationships with any real wholesale channel. Instead, they seem...

I just had my seats done in my '63 Bonneville convert, with vinyl on the outer areas and leather in the seating areas. As part of the process, the upholsterer reconditioned my frames and metal...

My daily driver is a 2006 Cadillac STS-V, equipped from the factory with Brembos. The calipers are HUGE. The car has standard (read: no holes) rotors. I got tired of trying to keep my wheels clean...

FWIW, Partsgeek appears to just be an aggregator and not a retailer per se. I'd be wary, except for part number and manufacturer info.

Looking for the driver's side molding extension for my '63 Bonneville. I found a NOS piece for the other side, and got a NOS trunk piece many years ago (from Joe Wheat, I believe - what a guy), which...

I can't swear to the '62, but my '63 was always a really rich amber, with some gloss to it. My dad got the car in January of '65, so I've had the opportunity to watch it age over time (and yes, I do...

Perhaps tangentially related, I use K&N in my 2006 STS-V. For the Northstar engines - even the 4.4L supercharged one, as I have in the STS-V - the filters are all little dinky things (not like my PF7...
