I am looking to make a patch panel purchase and am leaning towards Bitchin Products. I like their recessed firewall and the fact that all their products are made in the USA.
I am lookin to get their recessed firewall, the matching floor (entire floor if they offer it) inner and outer cowl panels That may be all they sell that I need I am not Quite sure. Anyone by any of these items from them yet?

Seriously when did critical thinking and customer service go out the window? How about common sense and striving to go the extra mile? Idiots, surrounded by idiots it tell you.

Update: I looked at the Bitchin Products website. They are the actual manufacturer. That's kinda cool. You can talk directly to the metalbender.

But the vast majority of their inventory listed in their catalog looks exactly like those that are carried by Jim Carter, Chevs of the 40's, Classic Parts of America, The Filling Station, LMC, need I go on.
One could spend the whole weekend comparing prices to the other vendors but I'd bet the farm that you will find some higher and some lower than the few that I listed previously.
B.P. looks like just another aftermarket vendor to me.

| | | | | Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 280 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 280 | Well it appears you may be correct. I can not get in touch with anyone over there. I called classic parts of america and classic Chevrolet parts and the both have bitchin products listed but say they are not sure if they can still get stuff from them. Anyone know of another company that makes an identical firewall to their 3inch recessed and smoothed one? Better yet does anyone have one they decided not to use?

But regardless they are out of business.
Direct sheetmetal has a similar firewall...Eric | | | | | Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 280 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 280 | Hey eric, thanks for the lead! Funny just as I was coming on here to post a replacement website/ manufacturer....and u beat me to it. Direct sheetmetal is where I'm going to get my firewall and floor.

Some are having problems with returns/internet orders.
they suggest calling Direct Sheetmetal in El Cajon California., As stated above
Either Bitc##n Products is out of business or moving to Arizona.
