Good Auto-Body Equipment/Supply Vendor?
If anyone could recommend a reputable, quality site that sells auto body products (Ie Da Sanders, long blocks, sand paper, etc) i would really appreciate it. I cannot find anything i need around Charlotte nor does NAPA, PepBoys, Autozone carry anything useful.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Go to a body shop and ask them who the supplier is. After working part time as a service tech in a Pep Boys, I can attest they have very little you can use, or would want to use for body work. Often the guy behind the counter is as clueless as the chick at the checkout. I found it was faster to look the stuff up myself, even after I didnt work there anymore. lol
Eastwood has good stuff and you wont go wrong buying from them, but I can often beat the price and have it in my grubby hands and working the same day. There is a CarQuest in town that has all the stuff I need, plus they will deliver to my house 30 miles from town.
Not all parts stores are like that. So ask a few body shops too... If nothing but dead ends or the prices are just stupid, Eastwood is the place to go.
