I have bought a couple of items from A1 Canvas, last item was a black vinyl top for my 68.  Everything went smooth and it is going on tomorrow.

The guy's name is Jeff and I think he's done pretty well on the interior stuff he sells.

To be honest I did run into a little trouble with him while looking to buy a '68 Charger quite a while back because I could never get him to send me the pictures I was asking for. I finally asked a couple guys to go and look at it for me and it wasn't worth what he was asking. I can't say he was trying to rip me off but my hunch was it didn't feel right so I obviously didn't buy. He used to get a little fired up too easily and I remember him getting into it with some people here over some issues, but then that describes many of us sometimes, including me.

That said I wouldn't have any qualms about buying from him now. He seems to be pretty good to deal with these days from what I've heard.

I had a unpleasant transaction with him (Jeff) on Ebay and would absolutely positively NEVER do business with him again. He is a member of this forum. I`m not going to rehash the whole story, call names, or get into another arguement/dispute with Jeff here.  Last time we exchanged pleasantries, the post got locked. I tried searching for that post but it appears to have been deleted.

My advice on ANY purchase from any seller is to inquire about the sellers return policy, just in case you are not happy with the quality of the items received. The reality is that many repro parts are of less than desirable quality.

I bought door panels,seat covers and seat foam all black for my 68 from Jeff. I'm happy with the quality and the discount price over buying direct from Legendary. He drop ships those items at least what I bought was. The only thing is Legendary is not real quick on getting things out. Some if not all of the products mentioned above were manufactured after I ordered them so don't be in a big hurry to get your items.

his name on here is mastermopar and he is a good guy, he is just busyer* than a one legged man in a ass kicking contest.  I bought my complete interior set from him for my 68 and i was happy with everything he sent me..

Can't speak of his products but he can get a little pissy......I was going to go look at the same 68 Bull spoke of and told him a day when I would be in the area during the Xmas holidays.(he is 4 hours from me)....my scheduled changed and because of a family thing I couldn't make it......he bitched me out in an email so I never re-scheduled. Didn't seem like he was the friendly type.....I needed door panels and interior covers that I was going to get from him but that experience turned me off......maybe he was having a bad day so I think I would give him another chance since others haven't had issues........just my experience for what its worth.

I have sold Jeff a 69 Charger R/T and some other miscellaneous Charger parts and the dealings went well. He also quoted me some prices on interior stuff that were much lower than other suppliers. I agree that he is a very busy person and can get uptight if he thinks his time is going to be wasted, other than that....No problems!

I bought most of my interior for my 69 from him.  Would do busines with in the future.  He is knowledgeable and a fellow Charger owner, he knew most of the colors/matching stuff off the top of his head and everything that came in (PUI and TrimParts brands) looked great.  Is usually/mostly a nice guy.  It did take months to get everything in (secretary mixup?) after it was suppost ship out in a week, but the delays were not a problem (have not even installed anytthing yet) and I did not check in much or pressure him.  I thought I was going to have a problem with one peice that got shipped to wrong address and I was pretty much told to contact this supplier directly and get it worked out, but he ended up taking care of it.

I bought 99% of my 68 Chargers interior from Jeff. One item was damaged (rear seat divider) and I believe that part was drop shipped from one of his suppliers. Sent him an email and a replacement was promptly shipped. My expirience with Jeff was great.

Yes but 'W' isn't too far from 'F' so I was thinking he possibly meant to write the word 'wrong,' and if so I was wondering why he was getting ready to put the 'wrong' seat covers on.

I think it might be with the customer buying the product. Perhaps they want new when New doesn't exist in some cases...  Perhaps the buyer should just ask to see pics.. That would solve everyones problems...   :icon_smile_big:

It's a brand. Didn't you ever see the "FRONG" stickers on all the import cars? They usually have them stuck on the big wings.  :D

That's ok, I've got the feeling Old Moparz is goofing on us. :yesnod:
