Re: IML: Gary Goers- contact info

["Henry Hopkins" <hhrp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Snail Mail, that's it. 37 Amdahl Ln, Kalispell, MT 59901   He gets a ton of 
e-mails each day and if he got to each one there would be no time for work. 
Same with phone and faxes.  Snail mail gets opened and organized by Conrad 
who works on a part time basis so Gary gets the orders and Conrad handles 
incoming revenue etc.   Gary is a one man shop.  He does all of the 
production, from making the molds for rubber parts to completing upholstery 
kits.  Also subs out rubber orders and chrome trim pieces, always adding to 
his list of products.  For example, we were missing the horizontal cross 
pieces for our F hdtp.  He used ours from our F cvt. to use as molds.  He 
now offers these cross bars, unique to the 60F, in the catalog.  Took two 
different suppliers to get it right.  The first set suffered shrinkage. 
Puts out a LOT of money up front for set up costs for these items.  He does 
make a living at this, but he got into this through his love for letter cars 
and went from there.  A lot of his continuing work is, in my opinion, still 
based a lot on his love for the cars and the hobby.

You can order a catalog using the above method.  They are $5 currently, I 
think.  Catalogs have order forms and prices.  If you know the part number, 
just order it with plain stationery if you don't have an order blank.

Anyway, that's my Gary ramble for today.  You can probably tell I'm really a 
fan.  No way we could have restored our cars over the years without him. 
Also without Lowell Howe for the Imperials.

Henry Hopkins, 60 cvt.
