He owns us quite some Money for Parts that he never shipped, and it looks like he won't refund???

I ordered a A1 muffler and it took a long time (4 months) before I received it, but I received it. I really wanted to have the muffler the next day, but the parts are cheaper and don't forget the way he ships the parts!!! No DHL or a different very expensive way to get the parts to my home. An oil filter that was in back order was shipped for free. That's a good service!! Frank next time ask Steve if he is ready and then give him your credit card number!!!!! It will save you a lot of trouble!!!

I just received a set of SAW shot axles for the '67 from him. Took almost a month to get them.

Sometimes it took a long while. Sometimes within 1 or 2 weeks. Never had a problem.
Youre problem is not "standard" for Steve in MHO.
But this SUCKS.

My tip is to call him. I had a slight problem with delivery time for some parts and after two months I started to call once a week. I did this for a month and then I started to call once a day. Next week it was every hour, I simply tired him out!
I have always been satisfied with the price and quality, but the delivery time can be a PITA sometimes. But the weird thing is that he can sometimes be the fastest supplier on the planet.
I guss I have bought parts for 10-12K USD over the years from him and have never lost a dime.

I just ask from now on: IN STOCK?? If not: LET ME KNOW (Steve's own famous words). After that: No Problems. Like Roman wrote: The Fastest Supplier On The Planet.

I have never had any Problems with Steve or Shipping The Only Problem I have ever had Was I ordered some Head Tin and when I got It ,It seemed his Grease Monkey engine Builders had hacked up the Tin for the manifolds and they had been bolted on a motor Steve exchanged them with no problem All in All Steve is a great guy and is keeping all of us going there are not near as many parts shops as there once was and they are all still trying to make a living.
