I've bought parts from:

Jim Carter
AmericanClassic
Chevy Duty
C.A.R.S. INC.
King Parts

I've been happy with all of them, even though one or two of the parts weren't the quality I wanted, but on a lot of parts it doesn't matter where you buy them because the dealers get them from the same manufacturer.

I just ordered some parts from both GMCPaul and Chevy Duty and got both packages within a couple days. No problems either.

I have bought from LMC truck, and was very satisfied. I even had to return a headlight bezel as it was bent during shipping. When I called and told them what had happened, the just sent another one, I didn't even have to return the bent one. I will be using them again.

I've used GMC Pauls, Classic Heartbeat (Wes), and for used parts, have used CPNE.

I've been very satisfied with all of them.

As far as LMC, I've only seen their dash pads, and would NOT recommend them. There's about an inch of gap between the cab, and the pad, on both sides.

When I was actually able to buy resto parts, LMC was the cheapest place I could find. (I wasn't on line yet).
I gotta say, the battery tray was the ONLY thing I was satisfied with, and that was after I tweaked it a bit.
Well, the hat I bought fit just right...but does that really count?
