Kenny's Truck Parts
Ran into these guys a few years ago at a swap meet in Dallas. It's a family business out of Oklahoma. Their on-line prices are competitive, but their swap meet prices are dirt cheap AND I don't have to pay tax or shipping. Got a complete Fleetside rear bumper kit from them, including even the license plate lamp, for $190. The bumper is imported, but has very nice chrome -- triple plated and no imperfections. Also got a new instrument bezel for $35 - yeah, the same thing that others sell for as much as $75! If you ever attend the Arlington, TX swap meet (held 5 times/year), check them out. You will probably be dealing with Kenny or his wife.

I got a gauge dash with all the whistles and bells for cheaper than any where else. I got it back in December and never tried to install it until about 3 weeks ago and there was a problem with the oil gauge. I called and they sent me another right away. Very honest and decent people.

I talk to Kenny at one of the swap meets that goes to every year. He is a very nice guy. Their prices are awsome and the shipping is fast. They are very customer oriented. I have bought the majority of my parts through them. I HIGHLY recommend them.

Kenny is the best.
I've been dealing with him for many years and never had a problem yet. He's at every major swap meet in the D/FW area. That's who I buy 99 percent of my truck parts from. ------------------ 69 GMC LWB 404/400 daily driver 71 GMC LWB 350/700R4 frame-up restoration in progress

Saw him at the Super Chevy in Memphis. Prices were real good. Only most of the stuff I need wouldn't fit in my wifes car. Got his cataloge and check him out because he is closer to me. The parts I bought from WES and Mothertrucker were the same as he had at the show.
