Today I went to the DC distribution and store! I was amazed!! This place is huge! I live about 40 minutes from there, I've never been there before. They are super nice people and very helpful. I'll definitely be back!!

Would love...to see the place! DC parts are second to none in quality as they bought most of Ford's tooling for our bumps way...back when! Did you get to see any of the manufacturing process or warehouse?

I didn't go past the showroom, but a friend told me that there is a museum in the back and tours are available. This place is huge! :)

Only three thousand miles. :) I live 150 miles away from Carpenter & don't spend any money there. I send my money across the country headed your way if I buy restoration parts.
