I have been doing a bit of freelance writing lately and am setting up an interview with Jason and his wife at the Vette2Vette shop in Streator, IL. I am going to submit it to one of the national magazines along with the pictures I will take.
Anyone got any good stories of their dealings with these folks?
If you do then please PM me with the details. Please put your real name (as opposed to your avatar name) in the PM so I can quote you (if your's is selected).
Vette2Vette is one of the Forum sponsors.
I am going to post this in C5 also.

I bought one thing from them and they are honest, and I would buy from them again if I need something

I have no big stories. Just have to say they are great to deal with. You would likely get more memorable stories if you asked about a vendor that is not so nice to deal with.

I am fortunate enough to live less than 5 minutes from Jay's shop and am honored to call him and Toby both my friends. He has come to my rescue many times with the parts I needed, sometimes when he really didn't have time for me.

I recently purchased an HVAC control head from Jason and company.

The only thing interesting about my experience with them was that I got a good part at a great price accompanied by fast and friendly service.

I'll buy there again when the need arises.

I have visited his shop and bought many parts from him. The parts were always in great shape and the service was excellent. He opened up the shop on a Saturday for me which was great. Good doing business with him.
