I got a call today from a friend that needs help with his car. It seems a work crew dropped a steamroller off the lowboy truck and into his 70 Buick Skylark GS 455 clone. It wiped out the rear 1/4, bumper and such. Hes looking for replacements to give the guy a quote for repairs. He is thinking about using parts from Year One. I told him about all the***** repro Mustang parts I've dealt with, but dont know about year one's quality. If anyone has used their parts please give me some input. If anyone has a parts car in So. Cal, we'd be interested in that too. I'd prefer OE sheetmetal. Much Thanks.
i started using parts from paddock, they*****. everything i bought from them wouldn't fit and was very cheaply made. then i switched to yearone. exellent ,parts, customer service, and delivery time. thier parts fit perfectly and were very good quality.
I bought some floor pans for my 71 Chevelle from YearOne. They got them to me very quick and they were good quility.
I got a SS hood from them for a Chevelle I used to own, it fit fine, but they didnt tell me that the stock bolts were to long and when I bolted it on it dimpled the hood on both sides.
year-one is great! my brother used them on a 69 chevelle redo. he also has a n-50 gs bumper that he might sell if your buddy likes those. give him a call, ask for steve 800-798-2581
A buddy restored his 68 Camino with their parts, he bought new door skins, rear side panels and more. everything was good quality and good fit. But I know guys here in europe they call year one - one year, because the guys get their parts one year after ordering.
i've heard good stuff about the quality of their pieces. But they're higher than a cats back. My daughter has used some pieces from them, she liked them. She has found some cheaper suppliers for the same quality parts. They'de be good for a quote, then shop around. I'll ask her who the other places are that she gets parts from if you want. PM me.
