Anyone interested in vintage speed equipment for GMC & Chevy inline motors
should keep an eye on the Inliners site for some BIG news coming soon. We are
confirming some sources so I can't say more right now, but trust me - this is
going to be an exciting announcement.
True, the GMC stuff performance and dress-up parts can be sometimes hard to
find. A lot of it gets traded around between Inliners without any advertising
other than word-of-mouth. (There wasn't that much of it ever available in the
first place). Most of the old patterns from Nicson, McGurk, Wayne and others
have been long-lost...but who would have thought Indian motorcycles could ever
make a comeback? Retro in IN folks. Stay tuned.
