Boy you hit the nail right on the old head with that Jerry.
How may different manufacturers are going to tool up to make
reproduction front fenders for instance when the demand is
probably only in the low thousands in a year.
A whole bunch of this stuff is coming from Counter Parts in
California, than re-labeled by the vendors. I've pulled a
lot of vendors labels off of different vendors only to reveal
the same supplier.
A for instance is the steering gear kit's. Many sold for over
$100 at various vendors and when I talked to someone at Jim
Carters, who were selling them $25 less, they told me that
they were the source, that's why they could sell them for less.
