Where do you like to buy your parts?
There are a lot of different NOS and REPRO parts sources out there for the 1967-72 trucks. Where do you like to buy your parts and why?

Re: Where do you like to buy your parts?
I think over the past two years I've purchased at least one thing from every vendor available!

Re: Where do you like to buy your parts?
The last stuff I bought was from "The Truck Shop". I try to buy as much as I can locally at one of the box auto parts stores.
Before that I bought a bunch of sheet metal from S&S Classics (Smitty's). He went out of business about a year ago.

Re: Where do you like to buy your parts?
O'Reilleys for most mechanical stuff because it is convenient and GMCPauls for other stuff because of fast shipping and good quality.

Re: Where do you like to buy your parts?
The best place, by far, is the parts forum if you plan ahead.
After that, forum vendors. Dead last is LMC.

Re: Where do you like to buy your parts?
I'm having a miserable time finding an online site to purchase a new ignition switch with new keys, and dashboard connection nut.
Any suggestions?

Re: Where do you like to buy your parts?
I buy from Truck Shop if I want good customer service, from Brothers if I want to wait for a back-order, from Lutty's if I want a good price, and from LMC if I need it shipped quickly but can take less quality. Also from Rock Auto when they carry what I need.
