Anyone dealt with him before or is local to the area?? Want the dash or my money back...

Looks like he may be the same guy on Ebay with the username mustang.parts.australia who is also based in Reservoir.  If so, I bought a '68 dash bezel from him last month and it took 2 weeks for him to ship it across Melbourne.

I thought he was a legit business but now it looks more like he's just a dude with a large collection of parts he's trying to get rid of.

 
Cheers,
Brian

I received a reply today, apparently it’s been sent via courier today... I guess I’ll know if that’s true soon..

Hi Sam,

Your parchment dash is on its way with Couriers Please as discussed earlier today,

This is not a scam, as you have received your previous parts in the past, i ended up in hospital having surgery done so this has pushed me out by 1-2 weeks,

Thank you for your business, patience and understanding


As for Phil Beresford, (nosmustangsupplies) i suggest you keep your comments to yourself, as you have not purchased parts from my shop, when i've actually purchased from you.

Stop being a keyboard warrior and worry about your own business instead of others, i haven't slagged your business, or should i?

I have heard alot more stories than you would think about your business and none of them being positive either,

So i suggest you keep your comments to your self.

Went to National Mustang Parts today to buy some panels. I found Lou very helpful and his prices very competitive. His shop is very well set up and looks very professional in my opinion. Great to see a mustang parts dealer in the north instead of travelling 1 1/2 hours for parts.
