I had lightly smoked front turn signal and marker light lenses made to go w/ my silver motife. I thought that I wouldn't have a hard time finding amber bulbs to put in. But only clear available at the local Auto Zone.

Does Anyone know of any name brands and part numbers out there?

thanks as always for taking the time to input.

My conversation 2 weeks ago at Advanced auto parts

" I need a generator belt for a 51 Lincoln Cosmopolitan"
" I don't know if our computer will go back that far but I'll check for you"
" Huh, we've got a listing for a 52 but not a 51....you're car must be a 52 then"
" No it's a 51"
" You sure? We don't list a 51"
" Well I restore cars for a living, and I've owned this one for 9 years so I'm pretty sure it's a 51"
"I bet the 52 belt is the same "
"No it isn't"
" You sure you don't wanna try it to make certain?"

It was right about then that my head fell off of my shoulders, hit the floor and exploded

A long long time ago in a galaxy far far away....

I worked in a Forest City Auto Parts store. This was just as computers were beginning to be mainstream in the autoparts industry. At that time we had racks of these telephone books that we used to scower through per supplier for parts. Older cars had special source books. It was definately more complicated but more educational simultaneously.


In your line of work it's probably best to become good friends w/ the store manager or just take charge and tell the kid at the computer to move over. I've done that before. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)
