Its a shame it is like a lost art, walking into a part store and most the time the parts guy knew exactly what the part number of the part you wanted was, if he didnt know, it was something to see him surf the his rack of parts books. He could usually find the part looking thru all them books faster than theese guys with their computers.

I have one! I called a Napa store and asked if they stocked a voltage regulator for a 68 Nova. Hold Please.......... then the guy said sorry we can't get that you will need to go to a junk yard. I just started laughing.

That is why I deal with a mom and pop parts store not these chain stores. Two brothers run the parts store. They are not that old grew up turning wrenches and will go out of there way to help you. Another lost cause someone that trys to help you and knows what you are talking about.

I do worry about the future of my kids the are 9 and 12. It's real scary!

I just got a replacement AC Delco 515 voltage regulator from Advance regular price was aroung $82 and I ordered it online from Advance and got 20% discount. GM parts direct was I think $62 or $68. I called my local GM dealer, and they wanted $112, I told them I could get it at advance for $68 and they said they must be from Taiwan, and I told them it was AC Delco and then he said he would sell it to me for $85.
