Hello Linda,


I got parts  from bugeyeguy for my recent refresh. I have yet to be 
disappointed. He gets his parts from other suppliers, but so far they are 
quality. The gauges are from SPEEDHUT, .. so you can get the same from there 
cheaper, BUT not with the faces that look so good. The cast iron water pump.. 
all you can get is aluminium from anywhere else. I did the conversion to 
Negative Ground and went with the GENERNATOR and fake regulator. The Genernator 
burned out it's diodes in less than 100 miles but bugyeyeguy made good and I 
got a replacement. 

I got the carpet set from AHSPARES. I chose the jaguar quality and it's really 
nice stuff but a pain to fit. The body panels were exact replacements. Can't 
say about the rest of their stuff.

I just took an IQ test. The results were negative.
