    Last week I bought a few sheetmetal parts for my roadster through them(fordor.com). I bought it all through paypal and never heard anything back. No email. No call. I left a message and they never called back. Has anybody had this problem before?

    I ordered door skins once and it took like 3 weeks. I ordered the same a year later and had them in 6 days?!? I do know that the biz was recently handed down to the next generation. I hope all goes well.

    I have used them they are the real deal. I think once in awhile they are out bending sheet metal when they dont answer the phone. Expect a little alteration on your part as their patch panels are not perfect fits.
     
  7. I downloaded their catalog a few days ago and plan to buy from them in the future. TCoupeKyle works near there and has been to the place. He used their stuff on his coupe, fit well. As far as getting stuff shipped, well...
