Lots of the people on the site have dealt with them...with varying degrees of satisfaction. A lot depends on who you talk to there and what kind of mood he happens to be in when you call. I usually went in person. (It was "only" a 100 mile drive from Abingdon, IL.) If you're in West Burlington, you're right around 50 miles from them. Well worth the drive for the more productive "face-to-face transactions." Happy shopping!!

Great folks, and usually have the parts you need, not always the cheapest, but good service.

Agreed-Steve and Jens are good folks at VPW; don't forget our pal John Bizal at Midwest Military in MN-he should also be close to you and is great to deal with for all your M37 stuff!

Good luck and maybe you'll have better luck with them in person. I had a bad experience with them and only deal with them on a last resort basis.

I have bought from them a few times always have the right things. Never had a problem.

Tim - a year ago I was a newbie. As Lifer stated, VPW has +/- so it depends on who you can get on the phone there. What I can tell you is that they do not support this site and therefore I only buy from the guys on this site... John Bizal at MWM, Charles as mentioned, Sid Beck, Rick Stencils, etc.... or guys recommended by this site ...

Offer up your specifics in posts and you'll see how much help is available from these guys like "WTB ....." Hope this helps you take advantage of this site for M37s. Keith

Gentlemen are Reasonably Knowledgeable Individuals with years of parts_smarts between them.

What one might not have the other will.

Totally First Class to deal with, do your deals with no worries.

I found them very good if your buying from them,and can provide part numbers.
but if you have a question in relation to your m37,to find out what part to buy, they are absolutely useless, ( in my case anyway)

I always ask John, at MWM or Sid, @ Ace, they also know what each other has? ( thanks to us I guess) after all of that, Steve or Bubba and even Dave Butler have been a great help, albeit a little bit more $$.
I landed a pristine T/O Drivers door, as well as a NOS Driver Front Fender.

What do the get for the fenders????

m-37Bruce · Post by **m-37Bruce** » Sat Feb 07, 2009 10:50 am

It was the only one they had, and as my ex-wife used to say, "if you have to ask, you can't afford it" I never did like when she said that!
Needless to say it was plenty?
