To add my 2 cents worth to this post: I religiously hold onto my only copy of my old PY catalog. I have a difficult time finding what I'm looking for on the on-line catalog. A paper catalog is a whole lot more fun to "stroll" through at night. There's nothing like curling up to a good car magazine or catalog on cold winters night!!

I too, would enjoy a catalog. I'll take the GP & non GP one unless you decide to just make one, then I'll take whatever that is too.

HEY, I've been away every day of August and since I got back, I've hardly had a moment to look up the PY website.

Printed catalogue is a FANTASTIC step forward. The PY on-line is frustrating to the extreme. I usually find myself looking at the Ames catalogue first, then looking up the PY on-line to try and find the same part.

Looking forward to seeing a hard copy.

I'm in for a paper catalog as well. I pleaded with Chris at Woodward for one, I guess he must have listened.

I just find it way easier to browse and particularly flip back and forth between sections with a paper copy. I also like having the illustrations right there, and not having to keep opening another window to see a further description, some of which don't have a pic or it does, it is often to small to see with any clarity.

count me in for at least 1 catalog. I find when I order from a catalog that I order items in addition to what I need - that comes from flipping pages and seeing stuff I did not know was reproed or stuff I had forgotten I needed.

Count me in as well. For both Full size and Goats. I've given up numerous times trying to find things via the on-line catalog & it doesn't help my carpal tunnel either

Chris,

Like many others, I am looking forward to a Full Size catalogue and I intend to show my appreciation by making PY my first choice for parts.

Thanks.

Default PY Big Car paper catalog

Chris and Big Car People:

I, too, would like to have a paper catalog covering my 1965 Catalina Convertible. Like many, I find computer parts searches invaluable. However, in my garage I have a phone, some shop manuals and even summit and Ames catalogs. You know how it is when you need a part to solve a problem: you will deal with it (for example by calling PY) immediately. PY would sell more if people could have a paper catalog in the garage by the phone.

Thumbs up Full size catalog

Chris
As the owner of three 1966 full size Pontiacs, I also appreciate having a paper catalog to go through when I'm working on my cars.

My latest, a 66 Bonneville convertible, definitely needs some new parts

Thanks, Ron

A paper catalog would be appreciated, there are times when being online isn't an option and being able to browse a hard copy is nice. And, with all due respect, the "other guys" have paper copies readily available.

Thumbs up

Chris, with OPG and A.P.E. in competition,(and w/fullsize catalogs), I truly believe that it would be good for business if PY showed them all what a full size catalog really looked like!
Good luck with it and lookin' fwd for a copy

I'm getting ready to start planning a frame-off resto. With hundreds of parts to scan through it is just not practical to sit for hours on end at a computer clicking away when a hard copy catalog is so much quicker to review and reference - hopefully the full size catalog comes out soon!!!

Agreed. However, you can look at our last print catalog as a pdf file and print out the pages in the meantime. The only problem is the prices in the PDF are outdated and there are some parts that are now available that won't be in the catalog. You could make a wish list for everything you don't find. Also, once you make your list and give it to us, we'll price it and discount it so you know your total investment. G-Body catalog is done. The B-Body is now underway.
