Volks,
I don't normally do promos, but I think we have a situation now where the
Bus Boys are getting a bad rap that they no longer deserve. For instance,
embedded in Karl Bloss' excellent article (2 years old) on installing VDO
gauges is a mention they have a bad reputation. I think it's about time to
bury the hatchet regarding the bad image that we have had of the Bus Boys
over the past couple of years. This is my recent experience:

I just recently bought VDO gauges and senders from them. Their prices were
almost as low as Bus Depot and I found the guys that answer the phone to be
more knowledgeable than at some of the other places. And they take time to
talk to you; not just take your order like some places.

I talked with Walter. When I told him I was on The List he gave me a 10%
discount. I told him they had a bad reputation on The List. He said that was
due to some of the practices of the previous owner, but that the new owner
has turned things around. He shipped my parts out the same day and I had
them in two days. And they didn't charge an arm and a leg to ship them like
some of the vendors do. I would definitely order from them again.
