    Hi, question from across the pond. Parts are quite difficult to get in the UK but having looked at Brothers they appear to do a lot of what I need for my Chevy G10. Questions is, although its a 'truck' site and Brothers are listed on here for parts has anyone used them and had success with the parts etc. Apologies if this is a dumb question but don't want to order stuff and find its not right. Thanks

    I've been told the rear light lenses are not the same..

    You may need to be more specific about what you are looking for, then we can tell you yes, no, or where to get it.

    Some small truck parts do fit - I used Dan's classic for parts also.

    Wiper/washer control knob
    Choke knob
    Handbrake knob
    Dash pad fixings
    2 speed 4 connector wiper motor

    Try searching for Corvair and GTO replacement parts - the two speed switch with washer pump button is the same.  I found my replacement switch on eBay but have since seen it on regular parts stores like Summit.  So maybe those cars had the same knob.

    1st gen washer pumps as far as I can tell are non existent in repop. Might have to improvise. The ones I have seen listed on some sites and my local auto stores are not the right ones. Perhaps the 2nd gen ones are correct to the numbers,

    Tanz, be sure to also search updates and back dates. Examples: 55-57 Parklamp Assemblies are a direct replacements for our vans. Corvair glove box doors are also a direct fit. Brothers Truck Parts and Clark's Corvair Parts are good places to shop.
