    let me tell you about Dick York aka Dickster27....

    I purchased some items from him and had a shipping mishap (not Dick's fault). I contacted Dick and made him aware of the issue and he immediately took care of the problem,lightning fast!!! Even at an obvious out-of-pocket loss Mr. York took care of the situation .I would like to praise Mr. York on his attention to customer service and quick responsiveness. Thank you Mr.York! you are a true Gent and an asset to our Car community!!

    Best,
    Jon

    Yep! Mr. York is a ruler, for sure! He's helped me with a TON of carb stuff over the past few years. Definitely a stand up guy and very knowledgeable of early fuel systems.

    It's positive things such as this which make choosing who to go to if and when the time comes for certain parts a no brainer.

    I will add my thoughts as well.
    I sold a 4x2 intake, and another vintage intake to Dick a few months back when i needed to pay some bills. Not something i wanted to do, but, had to.
    About a week or so ago on a whim i sent him a note wondering if he still had the 4x2, and if he decided to let it go to please let me know and explained why i wanted it back.
    He responded by simply saying "Just pay me what i paid, cover shipping and the small amount i paid to have it blasted and it's yours"

    It may not be much to some, but, to me it was VERY nice and not something he had to do, because i know as a complete set up it would have been worth a hell of a lot more, and probably more just as a bare intake.

    I have my intake back, and have a great deal of respect for Dick, how he does business, and as a person in general.

  16. The world needs more Dicks like Dick York....mmm that did not come out right....
    anyway Dick is the man to see about carbs, intakes and related parts. Fast service good parts. (he might even tell you about how to use a newer power valve in a Holley 94)
     
  17. I bought a few items from him and it was nothing but a great experience!!

    You won't find a better guy to deal with than the Dickster. He builds beautiful carbs, like the tri-power set up he built for my 500 Caddy, but more importantly he's simply a great guy to deal with. I spent about an hour on the phone with him while he answered every stupid carb question I could think of, and never lost his patience with me. If you need carb work he's your guy.

    One more for MR York !!!
    He provided all the really trick pieces of linkage for Frank Morawski's Carrillo Roadster. They were absolutely period correct for 1951 and were the perfect finish for the 3 strombergs.


    Dick is a really great guy to deal with

    Had him do the tri power for my Y-block and it is a thing of beauty.

    Great guy and easy to deal with. When I get it installed if I have any tuning issues he will be there to help.

    Dick's a standup guy, and does awesome work!

    He did the carbs on this Cadillac flatheadintake for me, a couple of years ago.
