 |  posted 03-22-2001 02:20 PM         With many thanks to Rick Schmidt and Scott Halseth, I have great pride in welcoming National Parts Depot as sponsor to our site.
 I am especially happy about this, as I regard NPD as the best Mustang vendor there is. I have been a customer of theirs since the late 70s, and I cannot remember ever having a problem with their products or service, so I feel we can display their logo with pride!   ------------------'72 Mustang Sprint Coupe 351C 4V/FMX/4.30 Trac Loc

  I buy probably 90% of my parts from them and have never had any problems (well one time, but they fixed the mistake). That was a great deal with them and I am happy to have such a company associated with this site. ------------------Duane

 Way to go.  Terri and I have bought numerous parts from NPD and have never had a problem.  When ever we make a trip to Ft. Myers, we have to stop at the Ocala, Florida warehouse.  It's real easy to find off I-75.  Just look for exit 69!!!

 Also, I want to take this opportunity to thank you and everyone else involved for the time, energy and hard earned bucks you have put out to start and maintain this incredible site.  It has been an invaluable source of information and entertainment for me since the day I signed up.   Anytime you want to pass the hat count me in, no problem.  ------------------Candy Apple Red

  It's people like Rick and their support that helps keep M&M online and helping our members with their projects 365 days a year, virtually 24 hours a day!   Please folks, when you are buying parts for your cars, PLEASE remember our sponsors and always check them out first. You're only helping yourself in the end.  Thanks again, Rick! ------------------'70 Mustang Mach 1 351C 4V/FMX/3.25 Open

In my business we do a lot of sells over the phones. I could only wish to have one or two people like him working for me. I think his name is Jeremy and it was the SoCal store.
