Who is the best to but resto parts from

Who would you recommend buying parts full interior kits convertible tops body parts etc. for a 1966 Cutlass Convertible. Are there any good companies. I just waited on the phone for 20 min. for a company in Southern California. I had been waiting for a catalog for 4 + weeks for it called up to see where it was and I got attitude from the sales guy. So I talk to the manager and practically had to beg them to send me the catalog so I can buy parts from them. Whats up with that. Please tell me there is a better company out there>>>>>. Any help would be great you can
PM or post here

Keep in mind there is little to no body parts ava for a 66 so expect to reuse all you can in the car.

For interiors I keep hearing Legendary over and over but I have not ever used them.

I have had excellent luck with Legendary - The best, most authentic soft interior trim and excellent customer service. If something is not right, they WILL make it right at their expense! Watch for their 25% off deals and free shipping offers.

Fusick - great parts and excellent customer service. S&H is a little high, so get all you can to get the most for it.

Parts place - most standard parts are good, prices good, but they are not the nicest in customer service - quite arguementative. Their power window kits leave a lot to be modified.

OPG - Okay parts, prices okay if you get sale items and free shipping. Customer service is good but they do not know that much about 72 Cutlass convertibles...

BAP - I would rather not get into this one... People have had mixed results, but dealing with them is chancy...
They lost my business over a $2 part they never shipped with a $700 order long ago.

Year One - Never used them due to Hollywood pricing.

For interior I'd go with Legendary Auto Interiors.
http://www.legendaryautointeriors.com/

Other than that, I've been going with the Parts Place and Fusick and all has been fine.

Tamraz is another source for interiors. I an entire interior for my 72 Cutlass over 15 years ago. It has held up well.

Fusick would be hard to beat. I ordered from them yesterday. They do nothing but Oldsmobiles and they have been at it a long time. They are really nice guys and their service is great. If they have what I am looking for, I don't go anywhere else. I know there are a lot of good places. Legendary is great for interiors.
