I source my own parts

My Indie is very happy if I source my own parts. On the Mercedes I source everything, on the Town Car it kinds of depends. If I know I need something special like new rear air springs 2 years ago, I get them. If he sees that it needs something, he just gets it. He is a great guy and I really recommend him to any one in this area. He is really not crazy about my diesel yet, but he is warming up to it. I always bring my service manual along. He is about 30 miles away and a new shop opened about 1/2 mile away from home. I stopped after he was open maybe a year, they didn't seem very busy. I asked him about sourcing my own parts and did he read me a riot act. Never went there again. If you want the name of my Indie, Paul, then PM me.
