Re: IML: Lamps for '64

Hi Doug -

Congratulations on your new car!  I know you're going to have lots of fun 
with it.
I am a little puzzled about your bulb dilema.  I haven't ever had much of a 
problem getting bulbs for my '60.  I have run into stores that don't stock 
much of anything that isn't used by the later models though.  Try NAPA or 
some of the other chain stores and if nothing else they should be able to 
order them for you.
