Allisons automotive was an excellent find for me. Didnt think a Fiat service center even existed over 10 years ago when I needed one, and its just down the street. Guy Croft was also an excellent find that took my car farther then I thought was possible. Millers Mule was also an excellent find. All three of these places were never to busy to explain thier product, or answer my silly questions.

I don't remember you as a client who ever asked any 'silly questions', Rey. Only perfectly fair and reasonable ones!

I will add OK Injectors to my list of great suppliers, which also includes AutoRicambi.

I sent my injectors out overnight USPS last Thursday and had them back this morning. Price is excellent, service is responsive and courteous.

They were willing to wait a day or so for payment while the money that I added to my PayPal account clears.

Excellent outfit, highly recommended.

I just went through a mounting fiasco with an upgraded alternator. Jason Miller (Miller's Mule) helped me analyze the problem and modified one of his brackets to make the alternator fit on my engine. Great vendor who gets an A+ for the level of support he gave me.

I've also had great experiences with AutoRicambi. Twice they have called me to verify what I had ordered on line because it was odd (e.g. a single valve seal) and they wanted to make sure that I hadn't screwed up the order and would get what I needed.

You mean everyone else does not have a list of 20 Fiat parts/repair websites in their favorite places? It's funny, I researched and put together this list, but generally only order from one or two places for most parts.

Anyway, got to give a shout to Csaba at Auto Ricambi for helping me out of with a few issues. Above and beyond.

There is a site that has a lot of small parts for various models. Almost all parts are NOS. Great customer support and they go out of their way to help.

said it before and i will say it again..... vendors are great... i try and use them when i need them.... but the people on this site and the willingness to share and help and be patient and dumb things down for me when i am ready to take a stick of dynamite to my car ....are the only reason i still and will continue to own my fiat..... they know who they are and listing them would be an insult if i forget someone ... so i will not go there..... thank you thank you thank you.....

on a side note....recently moved and last night just after midnight my fiat rolled up on a car hauler..been withour her for a couple of weeks.... best new years ever

I also agree venders are awesome for these cars. Extra special props to Autoricambi and Millers Mule. Mark at Allison's went out of his way to help me find wheel centers a couple of years ago. Definitely above and beyond.

One member that I think needs props is Narfire. Chris answered 2 of my requests for small parts and shipped them quickly.

The last round of parts was small and Chris asked that the payment be sent directly to FS.com as a donation to help support this board! I thought that was an extremely classy move and will try to do the same when I am trading parts around.

Helping a fellow member out, cleaning out some space and helping to fund an incredible resource (this board)!

Cheers,

Jordan
