    Hey guys, I was just wondering who is the best supplier to get new repro parts from. I need some stuff for my 68 GT-500 and I want to get good show quality parts. I especially need the front fiberglass parts and trim. I have heard in the past about some parts being of inferior quality, especially fiberglass parts. My car is going to be a driver, not a trailer queen. I don't want to hurt the value by buying el-cheapo replacement parts though. Any suggestions??? Thanks.

    There are used parts for your car that will be much better than repos, if you look at the SAAC web page you can find vendors, or even on ebay.

    Try Shelby Parts and Restoration in Green Bay, Wisconson, Branda Performance, and Virginia Mustang. All three are good vendors. Jim

    Hello : I also am looking for fiberglass items, and I had no luck finding the Wisconsin Co, or the correct links on SAAC website. Any add. info would be greatly helpful. Thanks, Jeff raceri69
