A lot of times I find them buying the wrong stuff or paying way too much for something.


....They all cut me a great deal when I buy large orders.......... usually splitting the shipping between two or three customers...

That is why I was asking. I had thought about starting to buy a few things for my car. However, I buy them now let them sit for a year or two (hope I don't have to wait that long), then they don't fit right or not the exact right part.... I will just keep putting that money into the car savings account....

Did that car have a 440 in it and come from the Cambridge area by any chance? There use to be an AAR clone the same colour built by "Tony" in the 90's that had a 340 six pack, but the guy he sold it to ripped it out and put in a 440!

Your post was not addressed to me but woul like to put in my $0.02
I have parts I restored and are bought new from 94 to now that are in boxes and bags.
Plus all the stuff from the dart sport back in 2004{finished in 2005} when I was putting the dart sport back in one piece i was getting mixed up and was tring to use E body stuff on it. like stearing componits, A arms ect.
Now I Am down to just parts from one car.
Back then before 2005 when it was finsihed I had parts everywhere and I meen everywhare
On a full blown resto there are so many parts it is crazy.
It makes you wonder how many are realy on a car
Since july 29th 2005 the home was damaged I had to redo plenty of stuff that was already redone again a seconf time.
I am now down to just 3 car items inside the home now.
1)A polished 727 in the dinning room
2)The convertable roof assy. behind the sofa
3}The whole redone dash assy with new JustDashes Pad on top the entertainment center
The rest is in the attic
I can only guess that Alan's attic and basement are 100% full

This would NOT be that car. I don't believe this car was ever green before, nor do I believe it was ever on the road in the last couple of decades.

If it's the 'Tony' from Cambridge, there was a real sublime AAR that had come out of the Wellesley area and ended up in his hands for a while.

That said, if we're talking about the same 'Tony', he's known for his butchery on clones, among other things. Took a B5/white V-code '70 Runner and had it painted sublime as well....
