latoracing 257 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 CJ Pony parts, for sheet metal and the like. I have used others in the past (Mustangs Unlimited), but ordering on the computer is fairly easy with CJ, and "free" shipping (as nothing is free these days) is nice. Suspension parts are comming from Street or Track. Shaun uses what he sells, is easy to talk to, and is willing to help you get the most bang for your buck, whatever level you are playing on.

Max Power 74 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 For quality and stock I prefer NPD. For price, CJPony. CJ backorders the hell out of everything, so when ordering from them I call to find out if it is in stock. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike65 512 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 CJ Pony Parts for the big stuff that shipping would kill me & NPD for the rest. I have also ordered form Macs in western NY state & Mustangs Unlimited, all with good results. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rd49221 14 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 CJ for a lot of things. Especially if they're running a sale, like they are now. NPD is about an hour from me, so I have picked up items there. Summit Racing and JEGS for some things like Goodmark doors and trunk and for performance parts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MustangChuck 16 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 I've done a lot of purchases from Mustangs Unlimited, both via the mail and in person. No complaints. I've also purchased from CJ Pony Parts (thanks to the free shipping), but their part was back ordered for about 3 weeks. I have also ordered from NPD with good results. For non-Mustang specific engine parts, I've used Summit and Jegs. Both charge $10 in handling. I usually gather info on the part I need from the Mustangs Unlimited site then use Google to find a good price. It usually comes down to the shipping charge.

ramair351 10 Report post Posted March 19, 2013 i agree, CJ and NPD are the best, but i havent done anything with MU yet, i used to think auto krafters was THE place, but they dont seem to have much anymore Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sidthing 10 Report post Posted March 22, 2013 I'm done using CJ, their website is the easiest to use, but they are a little higher with their prices and everything is back ordered. My hood took 8 weeks! Even bumper bolts were back ordered a month. Laurel Mountain Mustang, Virginia Classic Mustang, Mustangs Unlimited, and Mustangs Plus. I try to spend with them all.

Flanders 47 Report post Posted March 22, 2013 The Mustang Shop in Calgary: http://www.themustangshop.ca They've had everything I need, and so far have always been cheaper than shipping from the US (I'm in Canada). Easy returns, very knowledgeable guys. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pakrat 1,044 Report post Posted March 22, 2013 It's been so long since I've had to order a part especially in large bulk orders but I always tried to spread the wealth and also look for the best deal (everything else being equal) and I reward great service now with a smaller order even if it's not the cheapest. Virginia Classic Mustang was always my goto place and then I would compare and shop at CJ's and NPD. VCM always seemed to have the newest stuff first like the '69-'70 specific export brace for example. I also liked John's Mustang out of Texas, little tiny independant place that gives great service for a competitve price and has those unique parts no one else seems to have, he seems to buy out a lot of old inventories and ends up being the last player in town. I got my vintage 80's Kenwood replacement stereo from him 10 years ago, this is the one that CAS knocks off now real poorly. I had also ordered a trunk CD changer from him, they shipped me one that did not work thru a radio station though which I needed for this radio. He had an upgraded and more expensive Sony model sent to me overnight before I even got the return authorization so I could still do my project that weekend. I'm sure that hurt his already short profit and so since then I throw him a bone whenever I can. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mustangmike6996 34 Report post Posted June 2, 2013 yearone is ok but are priced too high and the seach function is sloppy. NPD has the best search function but is an eyesore. cj looks the best but some things are way over priced. in the end, its all about the lowest cost for me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snafu 10 Report post Posted June 4, 2013 West Coast Classic Cougar http://www2.cougarpartscatalog.com/ I always get good service from these guys. They know their stuff. If a part is junk, they tell you its junk before they sell it to you. The site also shows in stock status so you don't end up with a lot of backorders.
