What are you looking for? Jeremy @ Rocky Mountain Products in North Vancouver, BC 604.913.7910

My mechanic has been waiting over a month for them to return his calls. I just ordered the parts from Rocky Mountain and they were here the next day.

For my restoration, I ordered most of my parts from the UK direct (paddocks, Craddocks, Dunsfold) It's the cheapest option by far. There's no duty on vintage auto parts do you just pay shipping fees if you ask or it to be sent by royal mail. I also used "Rovah Farm" in the US, Trevor has most parts you'll need with the option of aftermarket or OEM and he's knowledgeable about series trucks too.

I use 3 brothers out of Ontario. Much faster than shipping from uk and generally seems to be cheaper overall.

well I heard back from him, apparently he was in the hospital for over a month and is back in the shop, But I talked to rocky mountain and he has everything as well and seems to be a little cheaper but thanks for the other names and places I will definitely check them out.
