All the discussion in the thread about online buying got me wondering. What supplier do most people in this forum prefer? I know who I always call first. What about you?
Have fun, Kevin |

I have quickly figured out who actually builds cars and who pushes parts. Its all in the sales people... Gint nailed it with his HPH reference. People who build/service the cars turn out to be MUCH better with parts sales than anybody with a wharehouse. You get what you need every time..
Now..if he would just step up and get a real shipping person and have UPS pick up every day he would be all right. I buy from GPR (because the owner is a 914 guy) I cant believe I heard the name "Roy Rogers" this means you are close to "Skip Page". I used to buy my parts from "Roy Rogers" when i was in North Texas. Good place.. owned by a preacher. B |
