So I'm or was going to be ordering some parts for my suburban here so once I hopefully slow down in work here in a couple of weeks I can start doing some stuff.

Sure I can get body panels easily enough but interior and some custom suspension parts are through the roof on shipping duty and dollar conversion.

I phoned on carpet today. Got a call back and it was 600 bucks. And thats just the passenger area. Ordering online depends on where I go its 600 to 800 estimated.

How id love to order some stuff from ord but the dollar conversion and shipping kills me.

Guess I'm going back to the wreckers and fabing my own stuff.

Get everything you can shipped by mail.
That cuts out the handling fees of the shipping companies.

We don't have that choice with most vendors across the line.

Shipping prices in Canada recently had another increase.

I just priced out shipping two VW brake rotors. They fit in an 10x10" x 4" box and on the high side would weigh 25lbs. Distance is 400 Ks. The cheapest shipping through Canada Post is $50.

Yeah most were ups ground. And like 6 to 8 weeks delivery.

I stopped by there shop the other day and there doing over the phone orders only and email transfers for payment. Not overly fond of that method.
