Dealt with Larry many times. He's been around for decades. Have never had a problem with anything I've purchased from him, he helped me out with some difficult to find parts for my 1970 Judge. Others wanted a mint for a power seat frame I needed, he was much more reasonable. Had a rust-free door I needed, He also sent me a crank pulley with the correct part number overnight. No complaints here.

I have bought several items from Larry and had no problem. I have never used his restoration service so I can't comment on that.

Absolutely. Larry is a very good guy and has been in the business for decades. I met him in 1983 and have been friends ever since.

I bought a trunk lid from him and had it shipped. It arrived in good shape.

Good guy to deal with.

I bought a radio for my 69 from him back in 2012. He seemed like a great guy to speak with on the phone and the radio was everything he said it was. I would do business with him again.

So! With all of the positive reviews I certainly hope that you are pulling the trigger on the desired parts from Larry?

Bought parts from Larry before the "internet" thing, when we mailed each other and called... Had him do some work on parts for me also. A++ man to work with.
