Re: [Chevelle-list] Fire
My local fire and safety place was selling Halon extinguishers as late as 1998 because that's when I installed the four point bar in my ZR-1. Mine was probably a new leftover.

[Chevelle-list] New Spark Plugs for a 1972 350
I am planning to replace the existing spark plugs on my 1972 chevelle 350, which has been bored, and wondered what you could recommend in the way of brands and type of plugs to help performance in addition to being newer than what came with the car.
[Chevelle-list] Wheels tires
Does anyone need or want to buy a set of four Centerline billet wheels and BFG tires? Sizes are 15 x 8 (4 backspace) with two 245/60-15 and two 255/60-15 tires. The tires are in fair/ok condition and could be used for a while if need be. I can send pictures to anyone interested. Price you ask? Make me an offer.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Fire
Yes, I checked there yesterday too. The problem you may run into in your area is someone to refill them. I would check for availability first and cost to refill. I know I'm not going to use mine unless it's one of my classics that's on fire. I move the extingusher to whatever car I'm driving or working on.
