Default Re: Serious Concerns Over Parts Availability

I share your concern. Every time I get in a car, it's something. Today, thankfully, it was only a battery. I'm always tinkering to keep them tip top. Working on something else tomorrow.

My biggest disappointment is GM's abandonment but apparent greed to 'propriety'. It is not right that GM won't support the cars themselves but also won't give an olive branch to the enthusiasts. You can get, for a price, old German car parts. The aftermarket never embraced or lost interest in ZR-1 reproductions--sure it's a business case.

I am extremely thankful for what Jerry is doing. Others too for that matter. Imagine if GM just overtly supported Jerry with DIS specifics.

I'm strongly debating downsizing. Every time I do I seem to just buy another. Everyone is hoping or speculating these cars will take off. I've been doing the same for nearly two decades & 15ish cars. I don't know where they will go but GM's & the industry's abandonment can't help. Maybe it's time to take note.
