Parts supplier thread?

I was thinking not only general parts but specific haynes parts.

We all know about SSC, Talon and Vodou. Are there many other suppliers that people would be confident to recommend for Haynes parts?

I am also thinking of those members with good fab skills who offer fuel tanks, steering rack mounts etc that may differ from the book.

I have noticed there isn't a for sale section. Is there a reason for this? I think it may be useful for people to shift specific haynes parts they haven't used and traders to offer their wares.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Threats?

I think it's a good idea, certainly a for sale section to include surplus parts offered for sale by other builders but also for other builders to offer a miscellaneous parts supply, as you say fuel tanks, mushroom adapters etc, to help fund their build. I am sure a registered trader status would be appropriate giving new builders some confidence in purchasing.

I am sure the two new moderators and two existing ones will be getting their heads together soon to put together a solution in the best interest of the forum....
