I've spent a lot of time and money at Ron's store. Hell, I've spent a lot of money at a few parts suppliers, all the ones here in the KC area and others around the country. I think I know Ron, and his wife, pretty well. They're a mom and pop store doing something they love just trying to make a living for themselves and their family.

I've always gotten straight info from Ron about 67-72 trucks. I know a lot of truck rebuilders that go there. I know people that work or have worked at other part stores here in KC. I've seen those people in Ron's store buying his parts. I know, not from Ron, that other 67-72 part store owners seek information from him about these trucks and the parts for them. I recommend them to others all the time. I keep some of their business cards in my truck for when people ask 'where do you get your parts?'.

I've read slammed67's negative remarks about Manes Truck Parts in the past. I never knew the issue until now although I thought I had asked slammed what was up. I have heard Manes' side, maybe you'll read it here maybe not.

You can't make everyone happy all the time.

I'm not done rebuilding trucks, just taking a break, but I'm going to get my parts from Manes in the future too.
