I live in Georgia . Only live about 100 miles from Mustangs Unlimited. Even when ordering have had good luck. CJ Pony parts excellent even had item that was over thirty days and they still worked out something. Had a problem with NPD but they eventually worked it out. With the classics the colors and parts are not always to match. It is a problem to get them even close.

RE: bad experience with cal-mustang
have bought a _lot_ of parts of them. And never had bad experience with them.
Live in europe and they do me tha favour of sending per USPS (far cheaper, less customs hassle).
Still I was thinking of using NPD for 2 reasons:
a) some parts end up to be out of stock and they don't update you on that unless you ask them
b) amount of parts compared to NPS. I find that NPD have a lot of parts in stock that I can't seem to find anywhere else. For example a fuel filter to go from fuel hose to carb inlet. (not those junky inline ones)
So I just wait for NPD to get back to me if they ship as well with USPS and I'll give them a try.
The downside with them seems to be that they don't have an online catalog where you can pick, click on it and it's added to your shopping basket. no checkout that remembers all your details .... Anyways ... we'll see

RE: bad experience with cal-mustang
thanks guys, I had a good experience with mustang plus and with americanpony too
interestingly enough, I went by Classic Auto on Passons street in Pico Rivera and checked out their control arms and they were different and looked much more heavy duty (they were only $50 bucks too). That said, the guy told me that if I cleaned the boot real well with gas or alcohol I could put some of the black gasket on there and it would seal well enough to keep the grease in and boot intact - think I will give this a try
