Default VanPelt Sales is growing

We're growing.......by one. My brother, Rick VanPelt, is joining us this Monday August 15th. Rick is a car guy through and through and is anxious to get started. His expertise was more into the 1960's to 80's Ford products, but he'll get the hang of the older flatties soon. Rick will start out in basic customer service, handling calls and simple order fulfillment, so if he takes your telephone call please be patient. We've added a second line here, but you'll still call the same basic phone number as always. Thank you everyone for making this small company grow by honoring us with your business! .............. Mac VanPelt

Growing is a good thing, will definitely order something next week.

Now that I have been getting my 39 out for some miles here and there, as I smoothly shift through that 3 speed I'm glad I had "The In's and out's" there to guide me. Scott

I'm just getting back into my project after an absence of a couple of years. Right now, I'm into a transmission and I'm delighted with the information Mac is providing through the website and his book. Planning on placing my first parts order on Monday and looking forward to an enjoyable experience.
