Gulf Coast Rovers window studs

[chris snell]

Quiet in here. What's up?

Does anybody know if Gulf Coast Rovers is still around? I'm looking for a set of their window studs. The ones I bought from (I think) AB were crap. They didn't have the machining on the sides to let water pass through and they got corroded and stuck worse than I've ever experienced even with stock studs.

Need something better.

I think they are defunct. Alan and Mimi? I am sure there are hoarders out there holding on to some of these

Alan and Mimi closed up shop Chris. Quite a few years ago actually.
Who are you calling a hoarder? I need those things. I actually dug a set out when I got my Tithonus. I had some of their mechanical air locker switches hoarded somewhere. Haven't seen those in a while, I might have lost them.

This is Alan's new( not really that new if I remember it's from around 1999) thing I think. Might convince him to make a few more sets of studs. I bet he still has the programming and as far as I know, they still own their real business. Which is where he made those.

That is the same Allan? Wow I didn't know he was one a joint LR & Hummer owner/enthusiast.

I was wondering about GCR.
I bought some secondhand steelies on Dweb lthis past summer and they were relatively newish GCR wheels...great condition.

Yep, same Allen.
I used to have a pretty good collection of those wheels new in the box. I have sold them all over the years. Mimi would give them to me for 55 bucks a piece. It was the best deal around for steel wheels. Never had to worry about banging up wheels ,just put another one on.
