Default Fullsize paper Catalog

Chris told me that if we wanted catalogs printed up that he's thinkig of doing this again instead of just the online one.

If you're interested bump him occaisionally by email.

PLEASE DO IT CHRIS!

Maybe it is just me, but I have a hard time with the on-line Cat. I have not found a way to search it to where I think I have tapped it fully for whatever I am looking for. I know I would buy more from them if I had a hard copy.

Agree with Deadhead that I don't think an on-line search always returns all the options.
I need a paper catalog too !!

Count me in for a paper catalog too. I like having a catalog that I can ear mark pages of items I have to have in the near future and the near future can be about 9 months away.

Hmm...I've had no problems with the online catalog, I thought it was pretty easy to browse through.

A printed catalog would be great. Last April I bought stuff for my '72 GP from Ames just because they sent me a catalog. All of my GTO stuff has been bought through PY. To me, the printed catalog is much more convenient in several ways. Ever try carrying your monitor to the garage to compare a part?

Another option is to simply download the catalog as a .pdf file, and then print it out: http://performanceyears.com/Catalogs.asp I see the PY full size catalog was released way back in 2002 so it is probably time for an upgrade.

I can go either way, but if a paper catalog was available, I would get one for sure. Either way, I would definitely be interested in an update.

I had a hard time reading the on line version so I put it on my desk top and printed it. Also alot of the items have had the price changes and some are nolonger available. It would be easier to write the changes in our own paper copy.
