We have a company here in Kelowna that has supplied continental kits around the world since 1976. They duplicate all the old ones and have some on newer style vehicles too.


 Yes sir, that is where i got my 57 Chev connie kit in 1987, as well as the 56 Chev connie kit i got in 1983. Continental Enterprises in Kelowna, B.C. Mr. Sam Bronstein was the boss there and he was always a pleasure to deal with. From what i remember Sam had a brother that lived in Ontario and i met him once, when i bought the 56 Chev connie kit in 1983. Sam was seen on occasion when he came to some of the bigger Ontario swap meets. Here are the photos of both the 56 and 57 Connie kits that Sam sold to me for both my 56 and 57 Chev's. If you know Sam, please say hello. Cheers. George.


the 57 application is the OE style GM continental

 Yes, the 57 kit is the factory correct kit. The 56 kit was offered as after market or custom. In 1983 when i bought the kit for my 56, the original type kit was not being manufactured. I would have preferred an original type kit for my 56. When Sam Bronstein at Continental Enterprises finally started offer the original 56 Chev kit, i had already sold my 56. George.
