My shop is 20 minutes from LMC and I make it over there once a week or so. They are good to deal with at the City Counter, but I have never purchased from them online or over the phone. Most of their items are pretty good and I have been pretty happy with my buying experience with them.

Caviat Emptor... (Buyer Beware)

I bought a bunch of parts for my '65 Chevy from LMC before Christmas 2008. I competitively checked prices on all of the items before placing the order except for the rear coil springs. The springs were $170.

When I got the parts the quality of everything looked good. The springs had a "CPP" Classic Performance Products sticker on them. I looked them up on the internet, the springs were $100.00

A $70 mark-up by LMC? What the ?@#!!

I called them, informed them of the 70% mark-up and asked them what they could do to make it right? The gal snapped back "we don't do price matching!".

I sent the coil springs back to LMC and bought them from CPP.

Even though I had to eat the shipping charges I still recouped some of my losses.

Now I fully understand that this is my bad, I should have checked around. But I still feel that LMC is price gouging on this item. There are a lot of other options for pieces parts; you can bet I won't pick LMC as my first choice in the future.

Are the seat covers any good? I was thinking of the two tone ones.

I promise I wont' order springs from them. I do shop around alot. So far everything I have gotten from Truck and Car Shop has been pretty good. I want to try out Steele Rubber Products for my windshield rubber and such.
