where's the best place to get parts. i have a 70 dodge d100. i need a water pump and oil pump and just misc. things. I've been getting stuff at kragen but it all looks cheap compared to what i'm takeing off and the last couple parts just didn't fit. I used to use auto zone but the don't have much for what i need (and the old manager no longer works there so getting help sucks unless your buying a candy bar & soda). I'm in tracy ca. any sugestions? Thanks

If you have a NAPA in your area I usually find them having slightly better parts/service than Kragen, Auto Zone, etc.
The best bang for your buck though, in my experience, are the smaller locally owned businesses.
