New old stock (NOS) Eckler's Industries refers to NOS parts as original equipment parts offered for sale which were manufactured long ago but that have never been used. Such merchandise may be permanently out of production and tooling may no longer exist, and thus the new old stock may represent the only current source of a particular item. Although some circles consider NOS parts as having to be “era” correct or “show correct”, this assumption is not true. NOS parts could be parts that are exact to what was found at the time of production, had upgrading in tooling to accommodate other car lines such as extra mounting holes or casting ears, made on worn or rebuilt original tooling or superseded entirely to another design for safety reasons. Eckler's considers a part NOS when it is either produced by GM or by an affiliate and/or subcontractor to GM. Examples of these companies can include, but are not limited to: AC Delco, Remy, and Delphi. NOS parts can come packaged in many ways such as era correct packing, update packaging, unpackaged entirely or simply in plastic bags. While damage to the original packaging is common, many items have been on shelves or in storage and over time may have developed some damage, such as surface rust or discoloration. This minor damage from “shelf wear” does not detract from an item being identified as NOS. Eckelrs Industries highly recommends you conduct detailed research before buying any NOS part if the part is used to duplicate an era correct application.
