comet parts

[hot65rod]

Just a little FYI. If your ordering parts from Dearborn classics. They are now ecklers. They also own macs. So parts are more than available. Just not all of your order will no longer come from the same location.

And they conveniently raised the prices too.
I am not liking this own your competition business model. It is far and wide. The end result is less for the consumer.

I hear what you are saying. But unfortunately new or aftermarket parts are a hard find from a private owner. I myself would love to find my own treasure trove of parts. But I realize time is really never on our side these days

[pro64]

YEA I guess you really got to want the parts to spend extra for them.

[hot65rod]

Depends on how you want your ride to look

We are stuck,you either shop FOREVER or pay the catalogue price!!The end results will show and make your Comet your own!! ROY.

I also noticed that a lot of the parts Dearborn offered went by the wayside when Ecklers purchased them.

I have noticed the same thing that since Dearborn has become owned by Ecklers may of the parts previously listed in their catalog are no longer listed. Typical when a company that is 'not' ford oriented takes over another company. And they probably call it progress. And increased prices to add to their profits. Another source of parts slowly going to hell. Too bad.

I just ordered these trunk extensions from dearborn
http://www.dearbornclassics.com/trunk-e ... -1965.html
They sent me the right side, I noticed after I placed the order that it said ''right'' , but it clearly says 44.95 pr. in the ad, with a picture of both sides. I called them after only getting the right side,guy said they would send me the left side. then the next day a girl called & said they were 44.95 ea. & asked me do I want to buy the left side with discount shipping. I'm done, no more dearborn/ecklers/mac/ssbc for me. to top it off it was in a "Classic To Current'' box, which I could have got for $70 bucks a pr. I'll never buy from them again!

I agree

[Lip Ripper]

I can add to their stupidity. Many of the Comet parts interchange; namely convertible top seals on the 66/67. Now they say that they're different and they don't have the seals for the Comet.

Boy did I get bent over. My frame rail connectors finally came today. I paid 159.00 for them lo and behold I open the box and taped to one end of the frame rail connectors was a install instructions , guess who's crites so I checked. 89.00 one hell of a profit 70.00 never again will I ever order from anything with the name ecklers connected to it. School of hard knocks sucks. Save yourself some money go to crites to see if they have what you need . ecklers sucks!!!!!!!!!
