Bowtie Bits

Just recieved the front fender bottom sections I ordered for my truck from Bowtie Bits. This is the absolute best stuff I've seen from any vendor and the price was dirt cheap. I'm new to the truck forum, but been doing tri five cars and early fords for years, so this ain't my first barbecue by any means. This is the best stuff i've seen by a country mile. It's better than OEM in my opinion.

Re: Bowtie Bits

Thanks for the input. I bought a couple of NOS items from them when they were just getting started and was also very pleased with the experience.

Re: Bowtie Bits

I find it hard to beleive this. I beleive all parts are stamped , made by a limited amount of manufactures, so therfor, all parts houses are selling the same stuff.
Bowtie Bits must be selling the same stuff as Classic Industries, Brothers etc...
Now the only different is price and customer service.

Re: Bowtie Bits

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but just found out these guys are about 10 minutes from my work. Heading over at lunch to pick up some parts. I hear they have a slew of trucks in the back so you might call them if your looking for something hard to find.

Re: Bowtie Bits

They have a lot of NOS and used oem parts for sale. I've dealt with them quite a bit. They also do correct gauge and speedometer restorations. I had them rebuild a fuel gauge for me when the resistor went out on the back.

Cheers.
