Website is gone and noone answering the phone when I rang (answering machine only). Are they still in business?

Website being down must be really bad for business. Ive been told it will be up again sometime.
Phone not answering is probably because of holiday break.

he is still going got some stuff this week. He always has stuff on ebay

Looks like he forgot to renew his domain name which is now owned by a cricket club in the NT. Ha Ha!

But why even bother with them. Unless you are desperate most things can be sourced cheaper from the UK.

eg He had engine mounts for $60 each plus postage. I got a pair from the UK delivered for around $30. Around $90 cheaper. I cant remember what he was asking for his radiator hoses but they were a lot more than the $14 I paid for a pair from Veale.

First stop when looking for parts should always be UK ebay.

I had ordered a pair of sills from smcka but they didn't arrive and I didn't want to wait for a new set to come all the way from the UK. Wasn't too sure who else to contact in regard to these sort of items in Australia TBH so feel free to make suggestions.

Gear out of the uk is normally about a week ... But due to the snow at the moment things are taking a bit longer as I'm finding out..

Wow .. only a week!

Along with postal strikes (both here and in the UK). Then there are the times when things don't turn up at all.[:(!]

Yep postage ex UK is quite fast as they mostly use couriers. My steering rack only took a week.

For sills and other body panels you could try

I found them very helpful.

Their website is back up today - well sort of!!!

Some of the links don't work and most of the pics.

Whoever looks after the website needs a new career. It must be really hurting his business.
