I have bought things from both PY and Ames and find they are both good comapnies with knowledageable sales folks.
I have ordered quite a few sheet metal parts from Goodmark and found them to be quick and the parts were correct. The panels seem to fit ok but then again I have nothing to compare them to. This is my first restoration.
I ordered an exhaust system from Gardner exhaust and I have got to tell you, these guys are GREAT. UPS lost a box out of the main box on my order and they shiped another box immediatly at no charge. If you want the exhaust to be right, they can do it. My exhaust are factory correct and they give you al the correct hangers etc.
I ordered new brake lines and tramsmission cooler lines from The Right Stuff Detailing. They're stuff is good and I had a problem as the front line is different on my HO car and they sent a pick up for my old line, then duplicated it, and I got it back within a week and a half of sending the old one off and it was no charge.
I buy alot of paint and body work supplies from eastwood and have no trouble with them at all.
I found a welding supply on line whos prices are great and they sent my order the next day. Its called the welding depot.
If I can think of any more places I will list them.
OK I just remembered. I ordered a complete front end steering/bushing kit from PSC (not PST). I put them on a while back and just noticed that the inner tie rod ends have the grease fitting in the back of the arm. This allows them to hit the bolts that secure the lower a arms. Other companies parts I've seen installed (PST I believe)have them on the ends of the tie rod ends, and I have a frame I believe to be stock that has them on the ends as well. I have not put the body back on the frame yet so I will need to deal with this problem soon.
