I'm to the point now to order a major amount on parts.
I live in Holland (Europe) and I don't want to order all the stuff at one vendor, but spreading the risk over different vendors.
Now I like to know which of these vendors is the best or worst.
I have in mind Jim Carter, Filling Station, Golden State Parts, Parts of America, LMC Truck, B&W Antique Auto Parts Inc. and Brothers.
In total my order will be some $4000.
Can anyone help me with a choice of the 3 best vendors.

I can only recommend two on the list. Both the Filling Station and Jim Carter are first class suppliers. Little to no experience with the others.

Same here. I agree with Chippy Dippy's assessment.  :) :grin:

I've had really good luck with Jim Carter and The Filling Station too. I've also had acceptable service from Bowtie Bits (Wichita, KS).

Thanx so far.
I know The Filling Station, I paid them a visit some 7 years ago and they made a good impression.
So that will be one of my major suppliers of parts.

I've also had excellent dealings with both Jim Carter and the Filling Station. Both are first-rate, long established vendors.
