I think of Gary Wallace in Saint Louis first when I need "stuff" for my '28. He has a catalog on line. I am sure that several others are just as reliable as Gary is, You might ask Wally Deck in your home state.

Gary and Wally are both great! You might want to add Hampton Coach to your list as well. :cool2: laugh laugh laugh laugh

If I were you and if you think you are good with written material, purchase a Fisher body manual for the wood body Chevrolets, Buicks,Marquette, Oakland,Viking,Pontiac,Oldsmobile,Cadillac and LaSalle. It is:

Fisher body service manual 1926-1931 closed body models. (Open cars had a Chevrolet or other than Fisher made body.) it has a number on the cover CHP-723104

Hampton Coach should send good detailed instructions, however , Some of their customers have said that they don't.

This manual is a 131 page reproduction of the original manual. I think I ordered mine from Gary Wallace when I was rebuilding the windows on my 28 Sedan You also will see them listed on EBay's auction when you are at the EBay home page and you search for: <1928 chevrolet> .
