sweet that is what i am lookin for pics and comments on what your experiences were with them thanks alot mt man chad. that is a sweet lookin ride. one question. did you get the hog rings and pliers somewhere else or did they have those as well?

anyone else?

Mt Man Chad · 07-02-2008, 03:59 PM

I picked up the hog ring pliers and rings at a local Auto upholstery shop.

You'll need about 150 hog rings for a bench... I had a pack of 100 and it's wasn't enough to do the job right!

woodymm3 · 07-02-2008, 04:02 PM

thanks for the tip. ill probably need even more then since i am doing two buckets and a rear bench for my blazer. i called them and they are sending me some color schemes as we speak.

DURRTY · 07-02-2008, 06:07 PM

ive never heard of them before this post. It looks like they have allot of nice pieces and parts

semperfidoordie · 07-02-2008, 06:08 PM

I'm planning on ordering a radio and and kick panel speakers from them so we'll see when I order glad to hear that they're helpful and friendly

woodymm3 · 07-02-2008, 06:55 PM

when i spoke with them to get the sample colors they seemed more than helpful. that is one of the reasons i wanted to ask if anyone had dealt with them. cause if their products are as good as their service then they have a customer in me. anyone else got any pics of seat covers from them?

Topfuelflat · 07-03-2008, 03:15 AM

Great to deal with.

People who frequent the board tent to support the board vendors since the parts are often the same and the well, board vendors are part of the community. That way when they do good or bad, we compliment or kill them.

Then again, with shipping costs so high, think about ordering in-state or out to save sales tax, or shipping. Don't pay both!

**Yukon Jack** · 07-03-2008, 09:54 AM

Assuming they are the ones out of the Kansas City area I've bought a few things from them in the past at a local swap meet that they attend each year. They seem to be pretty good to deal with but I think their prices are about the same as the board vendor prices last time I compared a few parts.

i used to drive to kansas city just to buy things at their store. They had a store front with all new parts and just about all used parts that you would want, He also had used trucks (at least 5 or 6) every time i went up there, everything from projects to 20K rides.

But tracy is the guy's wife, the owner's name is Ron Manes

BLUE THUNDER · 07-14-2008, 07:43 PM

How can i get a hold of Manes? Do they sell new or just used parts? Thanks, Mario.

i agree about buying things off of board members. and if any would step up and say they had some seat covers and gimme the prices and such and maybe a picture of a sample of their stuff i would be more than willing to give my support to those in the community. the only problem i have is the lack of pictures or samples from those vendors. I mean no disrespect by asking about another company or provider. they had good prices and they could send me a sample and had pictures of their product. any good buisness should know a person is going to want to buy something they can see. not just a listiing with a price.
and that is one of the reasons i was asking for around about them. to a see if they had a good product and b to see if anyone recomended any of the vendors on here.

JDahl · 07-16-2008, 02:24 PM

It has been a while since I bought stuff from them, but whenever I did, they were great to work with.
