Mustangs Unlimited, first order they screwed up and I didn't go with them again for a while, glad I came back. Great on the phone and quick shipping. CJ Pony Parts has been good, but their prices seem to move around too much for me. I do like them and have never had a bad order. I believe it was Dallas Mustang that I wanted to work with, they were at a large swap meet in Denver last year, way overpriced and not helpful at all. Have the NPD catalog, but have not ordered from them as of yet, maybe in the future.

It all depends on what parts you need to order. Usually the closest vendor has the cheapest shipping costs, but since you are out of the US, Probably NPD would be your choice.

For our 67 Mustangs Unlimited was the source for most of our stuff, got some from CJ only because they are so close, but do not really like them have had as many problems as good (From CJ)

I would say either NPD or Year One depending on what you need. Sometimes you have to be careful with Year One. You are going to probably want to stick with the larger companies. Even if they are more expensive for the part, they might have shipping arrangements worked out and will be able to get it to you cheaper.
Also, check into setting up the shipping yourself. I would imagine you could work something out with DHL and / or FedEx to manage the shipping end yourself. We do a decent amount of business with the UK and we found sometimes this was cheaper depending on the item.
