Best price on trim sets. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Who has the best price on trim sets? I need a set for a short fleet side.....black uppers & woodgrain lowers, clips, etc. Looks like GMC-Pauls will be tough to beat.

I have it listed on my web site if interested. www.christiansclassics.com

Best price or best quality?

gregbr · 10-18-2003, 09:25 PM

Let hear the rest Mothertruckers....is something wrong with GMC Pauls?

MOTHERTRUCKERS · 10-18-2003, 10:21 PM

Not that I know of, there are 3 different companies making trm for these year trucks and i'm sure Paul sells the best quality available. With our 100% money back including shipping we stay on top of quality issues ALL the time and i'm sure Paul is too.

Is Mar K at the top of the quality list? They are the only one to repro longhorn upper box trim at this time?????

MOTHERTRUCKERS · 10-19-2003, 10:17 AM

Not sure about mar-k ask them who makes their trim, we have the longhorn trim but not in the catalog yet.

kingparts · 10-19-2003, 07:43 PM

What brand trim do you sell?

MOTHERTRUCKERS · 10-20-2003, 07:42 AM

We use GM in our customers restorations and are leaning toward Counterpart for the catalog as they seem to be close to GM trim.

gregbr · 10-24-2003, 06:26 AM

I hoped we might see some price competition here!! Might be a good time for someone to sell a few sets.

llama · 10-24-2003, 07:45 PM

hey a little competition sounds good. i am in need of a full set.

**seacrow** · 10-25-2003, 08:59 AM

I bought a set from Ed a mothertruckers. It is top rate quality, even better than original, all of the fasteners are metal and identical to the original. I have already test fitted and every piece will fit great. Even the tailgate band and upper trim is perfect. The trim has been a very impressive item. I will have it all on in about two weeks and I'll post some pics. I highly recommend this set and ed is very good about guarantees and quality control.

gregbr · 10-26-2003, 07:09 AM

Can't believe we can get any suppliers to run a board special.....

Mothertruckers, what is your best price for a complete set of upper (black) & lower (woodgrain) for a short fleetside 70 GMC...clips and everything to do it right? You have some good feedback here it seems. Thanks.

**Tim Christian** · 10-26-2003, 07:22 AM

I try to give the BEST prices everyday not just to Board members but to everyone. Thanks Tim

This appears to be an area of interest to alot of folks.

Hey Greg,

You should get to know Tim Christian. He is closest to you and will treat you right on good quality parts. A mutual friend referred me to him and I saved a good bit of money and was well pleased with the parts and very well pleased with the service. He works alot of shows, you may have seen his stuff.

thanks,
Ed
