Paul I have a large stack of stuff like that that came with my 64 Gt. Fun to read but heart breaking when you see what was paid 30-40 years ago. Headliner used $20. is one that i remembered. It was still in the car and other than one small mouse hole in good shape. Installed in 1974-75. It was good to use as a pattern for new headliner.

Ahhhhh yes..... The good ol' days!
My first trip ot to SB was in '71 and I clearly remember buying NOS 259 pistons for $1 apiece, an Avanti R-1 air cleaner for $5, NOS rear springs for $25 etc.
Then there was the stuff at Hurwich Iron like 259 or 289 NOS crankshafts for $10...

I have a few of the invoices around here and also a N/A price book but even at the prices I remember needing to make my list and then save up before send away for the items. At the time I wanted a pair of 64 Avanti powered R-1 fender badges but they were sold out so I has to go for a pair of R-4's, plastic badges and chrome oval rings. total for the pair $6.00 back then the dollar was a dollar and harder to come by.Candbstudebakers
