Some pics of the Chicago G 10 in New York

Hey guys,

It's pretty much rained non-stop here for the month of June. So, since the van won't clear my garage I have to fiddle with it outside. Right now it's at a friends shop to have the brakes looked at. I'll get some interior shots when I get it back. Fairly solid in all the right spots. Of course, on my way over to his shop the linkage jambed up ! (h-e-l-p) I hope the attached pics work. If not, I'll try again. Thanks Gents!

Nice van!! I'm on LI which I think may sink soooooon.
Say hi to Paul, Jr and Mikey

van looks great.., i might start looking ino snrokle kits for my rides. or maybe an ark.

Yeah, I think this may be the first 24 hour period with out rain so far in June!!! Hey Wylee, I'm right down Rt 211, in Walden!! And hey Donn, another New Yorker I see. I actually see the OCC crew once in a while. (some people don't like them much, so I'm not bragging) However........I have a band and we played at Paul Srs house for his house warming party and a few times after that. There are pics of his house and garage w/classic cars and bikes on our website. www.hotrodband.com You'll have to poke around the site to find the link to that page. Thanks guys, hope to see you soon.

That had to be cool playing there!!
Funny thing I also play, been giging NY for 15 years. I am now doing an acoustic duet (www.myspace.com/jadedrockband) if you ever need an opening act. We could pull up in two earlies. That would be fun..

Cool Don,

I'll check out your myspace. We occasionally get as far as NJ, CT or PA. If you're ever in the Hudson Valley say hi.

Hey guys,

Looks like I'll be replacing ALL the brake parts on the 66 G 10. (leaky wheel cyl, shoes falling apart, old drums) Does anyone have a good (not too expensive) source for drums, shoes etc? Auto Zone wants $54. per drum. Import Auto parts is asking $35. per drum. Getting better. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks B

Hey Boss, I'm almost finished doin all the brakes on my 64. I got all my brake parts from Advanced Auto Parts. The rear wheel cylinders were only 10 bucks, but the rears are like 33. I went on their site to get some part numbers for you when I noticed that the fronts for a 66 are only 15 bucks, but the rears are 45! This lead me to my next question, if the rear cylinders on a 64 are cheep, and so are the fronts on a 66, could you use that combinatation? Can brake parts be enterchanged between 64-66? Anaway, here are some links...

Hope this helps,

Thanks Ryan,

I guess shopping around will bring the total down. Thanks again for the legwork.
