Re: Rick's Pickup Parts

I just checked eBay and he doesn't currently have anything for sale, but did make his last purchase on July 2nd. So not sure. Looks like the last time he sold something was back in February.

He just wanted to retire and sold his stuff to the chrome guy which he then marked everything up like he always does and the rest is history. My friend Brian who I talked about in earlier posts started up his own parts buisness and he lives right down the street from where Ricks truck parts was. He used to work for Rick if you need parts I can put in contact with him a board member whatnow123 bought parts from him.

Re: Rick's Pickup Parts

Yeah, I would like his info. It was nice to be able to walk in and pick up parts instead of ordering from various cateloges. I have since been going to SoCal Speed Shop and Grumpies, but if there are shops or guys selling quality parts for a reasonable price in the east valley I would certainly be interested in buying from them. I just purchased a blazer and need a bunch of stuff. I bought several parts from Ricks for my longbed. I was looking for a dash pad for starters and then buy parts here and there, so the impact on the bank account can be spread out to look like I'm not spending so much.

Re: Rick's Pickup Parts

i used to buy parts from rick as well. i really do miss going by there. i would like the info on brian as well if thats ok? i believe rick is still busy, but i think he is concentrating on garage time for all the projects that he had lined up. the last time i talked to him he was still going to build them, but just not sell the parts. i think i might give him a call to see if i could get him to do a few small things on my truck. just my 0.02 cents...
