Caffeine and Octane is a local Atlanta car show that happens on the 1st Sunday of the month from 8 AM to Noon. The location has been changing, so go to the website to find out where it is. They also have a Facebook page.
Summit Racing in McDonough, GA has a "Monday Night Cruise" - which is really a car show, from 6 to 8 PM. This is not every Monday, so go to their website and look at the calendar for details.
The Southeastern Truck Nationals in Goodlettsville, TN is held in July. It has Chevy & GM trucks only, and is a great place to see these trucks and talk to owners about their trucks.
The Hot Rod Power Tour is held for 5 to 7 days in June each year. It is basically a moving car show, and there are plenty of Chevy trucks at each stop. It has changed a little and is worth going to a single venue to see trucks. But going to all the stops is not as much fun as it used to be - the bigger crowds have introduced longer lines and hotel rooms along the way have gotten hard to find and a little expensive.

Gran Turismo East is a tire & alignment shop in Atlanta. A lot of high end car clubs recommend this shop, and a lot of racers use it. I bought my tires there and had them mounted and balanced on the wheels. And I had the alignment done there after the brake and suspension work was finished.
Contemporary Auto Restoration is the shop that did the brake, suspension and rear axle work on my truck. I met Dave Caffey, the owner, at Caffeine & Octane about 2 weeks after I bought the truck.
He was showing a 1967 C10 that he had restored for a customer. During that restoration, he added power steering and updated the brakes. Dave's shop specializes in making older vehicles (1950-1970's) into everyday drivers by updating the brakes, steering, suspension and engine accessories and drive belt systems, among other things.
If you look at the pictures of the suspension and brakes on my truck, you can see the excellent work that this shop does. I'm not sure if the shop is still operating - it used to have a Facebook page. But Dave can be found on Facebook.

Note: These are vendors that I used for major parts or used for many parts. Other vendors are listed on the individual pages where I used them.

Jegs and Summit Racing have most major brands of general and performance auto parts.
SpeedHut has great gauges, with features that you may not find without spending about double for the gauges. I love the 270 degree sweep gauges with a built in warning light, and I loved that I was able to pick a speedometer and tachometer with a range that I liked.
Lokar makes high quality shift levers, pedals, brake, engine and transmission accessories.
PB Fab makes very high quality chassis & suspension parts. Nate Porter is really helpful if you have questions.
Kore3 has great brake upgrades and parts. Tobin Knighton is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. I used their front brakes, and would have used a rear kit from them if they made one.
Allen's Fasteners is a great source for ARP and other specialty fasteners. They enable you to buy individual fasteners at reasonable prices.
I've used parts from Brothers Trucks. This brand has been absorbed by Holley. The brand listing is there under Holley.
I've used parts from Early Classic Enterprises. This company specialized in 1960-72 GM pickup trucks, Blazers and Suburbans parts. They seem to have gone out of business. Their old webpage redirects to the Holley page, but the brand seems to have disappeared.
