There is a west coast seller in our classifieds that has been in contact with me on parts.
Sebring66 listed as a lurker. Company Carrera Parts does not do Paypal. Can anyone vouch for this guy and company? Thanks John |

I've had PM communications and spoke with at least one of the guys on the phone. They're local to me (hanger at Long Beach Airport), so I would visit in person if I were to purchase anything. They seem like OK guys.
Their prices do appear to be above typical market value seen on most 914 classified forums. Make an offer and see what they say/do (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

I can find the part elsewhere so I will. Taking a creditcard, but not paypal is not really a problem, but why the 2 week wait? It seems to be a business, so I don't think you have any issues about getting your parts, basied on the feedback I've seen, but you may find a better deal. |

At the end the price was fair. He was flexible and even helped with shipping. |
