    im looking for an alternate parts source for 53 chevy sedans.
    i was planning on vending through "the car shop" because they were highly recommended. however, 10am today i tried to place a substancial order online but the 49-57 parts cannot be ordered online. so i called them and they promptly put me on hold... for 15 minutes, i hung up and called back... on hold again 13 minutes later a lady couldnt tell me why 49-57 parts couldnt be ordered online. they have a new catalog coming out, but no one there knew when it will come out. apparently the new catalog has been "coming out" for a few months, so they stopped taking orders online??? i asked to speak with a person that can take a phone order and was placed on hold... 30 minutes later i hung up. maybe someone here can recommend a supplier that doesnt make it difficult to spend my money. thanks for any and all help.
