Suppliers for a 71 442...hmmm, that might be difficult. Coming to this sight looking for that, would be like asking Jesus if he knew any prayers.

There is Fusicks, Supercar Unlimited, Brothers Automotive, OPGI (Original Parts Group Inc), Year One to name a few. I'm sure you could also find parts on here from some of the members. Google those names to get the addresses. Some may post more suppliers. Good luck.

I try to shop at the closest stores to get what I want ASAP.

www.thepartsplaceinc.com < Repops alot
www.tamrazs.com < Cheapest for upholstery
www.fusick.com

Those are the main 3 I've used.
