Okay I am gonna put in my 0.02worth....I hope this comes out right because this is quite a touchy subject. I am not made of money. Often times when I need a part, I shop around. I dont just call up VPW and tell them what I need and have it shipped, I shop around and find the best price... I am not trying to knock Vintage, as they are doing us Dodge Truckers a wonderfull service, and they do have more PW parts than anybody out there..I just simply cant afford to pay the top end price on something...I enjoy these Military and Civi Dodges as much as everyone here..but I am young, just starting out in life and I cant sink every dime I make into my trucks...In a month, I will probably be buying some proporty and If I can save $20 off a price of a part then that is an extra $20 I can pay for a down payment on this land. I am sure I am not the only one here who simply cant afford to spend oodles and oodles of money on their trucks... I dont restore trucks...I dont have the facilites and not all the equipement to do body work etc..I just do the best I can to keep them mechanically sound and enjoy them..TO me enjoying the truck is turning the key and going for a drive or its jumping in the M-37 and exploring the trails in the woods. If I had a nice for show only truck, I would not enjoy it so much because I would have to keep it tip top and be scared to drive it.
I sell lots of parts...I have a good reputation, and I can most of the time afford to undercut my competetors and still make out fine. I sell good quality stuff. I have many repeat customers. I do what I can to give somebody a good deal and still make money, and yes, it can be done.. If anybody here gets Military vehicles magazine, you can find some excellent deals on M-37 and WWII Dodge parts. I have found it pays to shop around.
