Default Where to get parts?

Hi everyone! I'm getting to the point where it is about time to start ordering some parts and what not. So, tell me. Where do you shop? Who is the most reliable, who has the best prices, who will get me my parts fast?

I've been looking around and there are so many. MAC's Auto Parts, Virginia Classic Mustang, Mustang Barn, Sacramento Mustang......the list goes on and on. Getting so excited even with a new layer of snow on the ground.

I bought most of my parts from NPD (National Parts Depot). Great service, good prices (usually the cheapest), fast shipping (free on orders over $300, or used to be), lets you return items if not needed. They have several shipping warehouses, including one in Michigan. I'd usually get parts in 3 days from Michigan to southwest Missouri.

For large items like quarter panels, I bought from a local supplier since I could pick them up and not pay truck freight.

Always have had luck with Virginia Classic Mustang. Parts are always here within a day or two, and prices are usually comparable to other vendors.

Nice thing about the Mustang Barn (Glazier Nolan) is they use the parts they sell in their own shop. If you ever have a question, especially about getting the repro parts to fit, they can help you. That alone makes buying from them worth every penny.

I've used NPD, CJ Pony Parts and Mustangs Unlimited. Always had good service with all three. Mustangs Unlimited was really nice since they were so close, parts would only take 1-2 days to get to me.

mustangplus is cool! They have about everything you need and they're only about an hour and half away from me. I also browse on craigslist and ebay

I have had great service from mustang unlimited. Last year for chirstmas my wife got me a speaker pod trap door for my 67 I didn't get around to installing it for about 4 months, when I went to install it I found out that it was the wrong size so i called talk to customer service. we figure out that it was missedlabeled by the manufacture. They allowed me to return it with no restocking fee even thought it was a month past there 90 day return policy

I use Mustangs Unlimited and Summit Racing for my parts. Summit racing for pretty much all of my drivetrain parts.

These guys started as a restoration shop and now they are a full parts provider as well, and as mentioned before they use what they sell.
I like them because they are still a small company and Chad or Bruce always answer the phone and will talk to you about a products and or how to install it.

Check em out, if you dont see what you want call em at 951-686-3929

They have a huge ebay store too.
