I thinks it's a typical, customer pissed off about something. There is no clear reason for the post. How can we judge? I'm sure everybody ordering parts online will not be totally satisfied with what they received, or shipping cost's, and delay's. I've had parts delivered and had to modify them to fit. I've also ordered wrong part's. Due to where we live, shipping kills us. The internet can be an evil tool. I read reviews on everything I want to order. Crap happens.

I've had a few tough lessons on ordering of the internet myself, that said I've never had a problem with a vendor. Lately I have found that I can usually find what I am looking for locally for most of the parts I am looking for.

Good morning folks, looks like another nice day coming up.
I like to buy locally as much as possible and with the Canuck buck so low it makes the most sense.
The hardest to buy presents for is my bride, of course she thinks the same of me.
What`s on your long list John?

What`s on your long list John?
Steering column, shifter, emergency brake cables, throttle pedal and cable, transmission kick down cable, brake booster and master cylinder, radiator and hoses, vintage air unit, wiring harness, need a complete box, rear fenders and running boards, more stuff that I can't think of just now and paint.
That's the short list Morris...lol

I`m almost afraid to ask what the long list is John....probably very much like mine. And most of it won`t fit under the Christmas tree.

I hear you, this spring a $299 US brake master cylinder/booster kit for my 53 M100 quickly turned into a $550 Canadian once in my hot little hands.

Was that the one from CPP with hanging brake pedal? That's the one I have in my panel and was going to put in this build too.
