Both PY and Ames are top notch. I have never been disappointed by either.

Ames came to my rescue. I was looking for a 69 T/A rear spoiler that was tapered to fit the 67/68 rear end. Much to my dismay I was told by several sources that the part had been discontinued. My last call was to Ames. The guy told me they were discontiued also. But he thought he had one left in the back. After holding for several minutes I was the proud owner of said spoiler [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] I have also had similar encounters with other vendors while looking for parts for my 67 Bird. Including PY. When I did have a problem it was usually handled with out too much hassle.

Bottom line. As many others have said you never know what you will get when you order sight unseen from a catalog or online.

Honest dad, that 455 on the side of the block is a serial number [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

There are three places I will buy my restoration parts from; Ames, PY, and Year One, with Year One being the last because they are higher in price and shipping.
