I looked at reviews...
A Rob Hoff gave Bert’s one star. Reason was trouble finding stuff in online store.
OK....I have no trouble at all. Does Mr Hoff have trouble on other online sites? Maybe it’s not the site!

All he has to do is make a phone call...Bert's will happily deal over the phone...It is the way I perfer...Ernie in Arizona

Berts is the BEST OF THE BEST!!!!!!!!!! I don't remember the last time I bought a Model A part anywhere else. Go with Berts!!!!!!!!!!!!

I second the second! I have ordered from Bert's multiple times in the last couple of months and parts are always shipped same-day and arrive from CO to KY in 2 days. Very satisfied with the quality as well. A friend was just saying he was amazed that I could get parts for my A faster than he can for his Camry!

By the age demographics that I ran here many months ago,
Many of you will remember Page’s Model A from years ago. It was quite the blessing to get the good original parts from Fred, Buzz and Abe.
Berts (Steve) is the same transplanted to today! Not an easy task since there is a dwindling quantity of original parts. Pages was planted when model a was popular but still affordable and lots of decent parts were being salvaged and cars dismantled.
I think we all owe much gratitude to Steve for what he does….I hope he makes a great wage doing it!

Thanks to Snyder’s, Bratton, A&L and others that get out there and
make /contract to get quality restoration parts and supplies.

When I was a teen I wrote to Page's and they sent me a brochure of Model A's they had for sale. It was fun to look at, I couldn't afford one then but could dream!

I just made what I am sure is an aggravating order from Bert's. Less than $15, however service was great, shipping was fast. That is why I give him my larger orders also. Since my car is "finished" I don't order much.

Bert's is the best!

McMimmcs · 09-13-2021, 01:58 AM

The quality of service, is second to none! They should be very proud!

Jeff/Illinois · 09-13-2021, 04:11 PM

I like that you aren't charged 20 bucks to send a 1 dollar part

They find the least expensive shipping route they can.

Many thanks to Bert's for saving my skin and quickly getting me a replacement steering column after UPS lost my original column. Not sure how UPS could lose a 50" tall box, but they did.

Never underestimate what shippers can lose! Often a package will come apart and all is lost
When I go to post office to ship smalls …….I tell them here’s another for you all to crush or lose!They know me well.
