What is it with the 68 stuff? Hey .. if it doesn't fit just say so, don't sell us cr*p that doesn't even come close.
I too was disappointed with the Ames product. I ordered the complete set of frame and core support bushings and was underwhelmed by what I received. No comparison with the Inline Tube product which is what I went with. AND THEY FIT and were identical to my originals down to the part numbers.

I appreciate the fact that Ames does a lot for the Pontiac hobby. In the past year or so they have improved their shipping (at least to the West Coast) and come out with some new products. But...I wish Ames would come into the 21st Century with a modern website, delete all the obsolete and discontinued merchandise from their catalogs and accept the fact that there are superior products out there that they don't carry.

For those of us with 68s, or any other year, you must not accept the "fits all 68-72". Do the research before you buy.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.

Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
