Listerati,
I wanted to share two good experiences I had just lately with a British Car
business here in Colorado and one in the UK.
I recently queried the list about my Spitfire overheating at highway speeds, I
got a lot of suggestions (thanks to all) and it turned out to be a bad vacuum
advance unit on the stock and original delco remy distributor. I visited
Sportswear Craftsman in Arvada CO and Paul Dierschow the owner pulled a box of
distributors from his vast collection (and organized in huge storage
containers) of British car parts with the type of advance unit I needed. He let
me chose one I tested as good, unscrewed it from the distributor and then gave
it to me for free. No charge for his time in digging out a dozen dizzies or for
the part. I have been a long time customer but still I thought it worth a shout
out.
The other vender is ClassicCarbs in the UK. I had bought a set of mesh/gauze
air filters for my weber carbs but there was some confusion as to the
definition of what a gauze filter means. They meant gauze metal screen and I
was thinking cloth/paper type gauze filtering material. Although I was outside
the return time they graciously let me return them. I had to pay half the
return shipping but I got a full refund. They were very open to discussing the
issue and deserve credit for meeting me half way.
I complain plenty when Iâ??ve felt unfair treatment by a vendor so I wanted to
make mention when things go right too.
Thanks
