Yes! The Rumor is True! Jim Carter Truck Parts is beginning our 46th Year!
Few if any have reached this milestone.
Jim Carter here, we are just as active in GM trucks as ever!
Click on a year below. See what a near 1/2 century can do for you!
Thank you, thank you, for so many great customers like you that have helped our company reach
our 45th Anniversary. We are so proud to have reached this milestone.
This is Jim Carter, I am
still very active as when I started restoring my first pickup, a 1950 Chevy 1/2 ton and needed parts! It now
sits in our Lobby!
Though the 1955-1959 GM doors are basically the same and will interchange, there is one noticeable difference. The inside metal door panel (covering window and door mechanisms) is held in place with smaller screws in 1955.
It is assumed these smaller 10 x 24 screws were easier to break or strip when over tightening on the assembly line. By 1956, GM had increased their size to 1/4" x 20 and this remained through the series.
