Mopar Approved Classic Parts and Dealers

[uiucphoenix]

For classic and vintage parts GM has a site (http://www.chevrolet.com/performance...-gm-parts.html) and Ford has a site (http://www.fordparts.com/). Is there a one stop source for Mopar approved classic parts or dealers? If not, what reliable resources are being used?

I have found a few sites that offer restoration parts. Are any of these well respected for classic Mopar parts:
- Classic Industries®
- Goodmark
- Kanter Auto Products
- National Parts Depot
- B/E & A Restoration Parts

I have bought a lot of things from Classsic..I have shied away from Goodmark, as lots have said the product is inferior to AMD.

For metal parts, always cross reference the part on Amazon, sometimes you will get cheaper than even ebay..

all of this is JMHO.

Classic industries are good but very high on shipping. NPD is ok, and don't know about the rest

Thank you for the reply! When you are looking for parts, where do you go?

The problem with "Mopar" is that it doesn't exist. Chrysler, or what "it was" is now owned by the Italians.

Swap meets or word of mouth or even facebook. So far I've found all I need from those sources. Summit racing for my engine parts. Car is a restomod though so I'm not concerned about 100 percent correct parts

Did Mopar ever support classic and vintage parts for restoration or have they always left that in the hands of approved parts vendors that supply NOS and Reproduction parts to people that are restoring their cars?

I'm just trying to understand where these parts exist and how end of life parts are made when there are none left out there in the wild...

Since Direct connection closed in the late 80s, it's been majority aftermarket.
