    Ricks First Generation Camaro-White striped vacuum hose to heater valve, bottles of colored inspection mark paint, large supply of OEM paints that duplicate different types of plating(some pricey)Worth looking through this catalog for other stuff.

    Ground Up Restoration(Chevelle site) very hard to find front end alignment shims as origanal with little handles available in 3 thicknesses. Also worth checking catalog.

    Ames Performance Engineering(Pontiac) The only supplier I have found that has correct style wire harness ties in both sizes(2.75 and 3.75). They even have part# on them. They also claim to have original rubber molded under dash firewall pad? Have not tried it but the common viny replacement is a piece of $$$$. Many other thing may cross over here as well.

    Cars(NJ) Their core support mounts are the closest rubber to originals mounts used in all locations. Rubber is actually somewhat pliable as original. I had used these core support mounts in other locations as well. All others are like hockey puck hard. Their body cushions are correct also as they have the washer molded in.( paint them yellow to be correct) Their whole kits are not the same as the individual stuff however and are the same as everyone elses.

    www.amkproducts.com for a multitude of origal type fasteners. Some with correct head markings, some not.
    Feel free to add to this list as it is good to know where to find correct detail stuff
