Question about a NAM vendor

Does anyone know if these guys https://www.northamericanmotoring.com/classicauto

have a way to order parts other than calling them ?? (like a real website?)

I've used e-mail

and some times the response isn't instant. But why not use a phone? It's the fastest for sure.... Also, if you have to give a credit card number, then it's just between you, classic auto, and the NSA!

Yes tha's true.
I just like to browse through stuff to see what they have and their prices. I have been accustomed to the interweb shopping experience (for better or worse...)
I really want to get the R90 wheels for my new MINI (not arrived yet); don't know if the 17" 'real' one are worth it ($$$$$!!) or maybe I should get the 16" version; almost the same design but not the 'real' R90 wheels BBS makes.

It's a parts counter at a dealership

that has a discount channel to sell through... So no fancy web interface.... Prices are pretty good, but 20% of dealer... Some things you can find for less elsewhere. I use them to buy fasteners and the like...

Yeah I'd browse elsewhere but do use them for comparison shopping...I've ordered from them 3 or 4 times myself, and turn around is usually really fast; they usually get back to me the same day, and often ship the day or the next.

Classic also provides NAM members with a discount. You just have to mention it when you order. I've ordered a few things from them. I received prompt service after I quit relying on email.

The first time I emailed them, it got lost in a black hole. After that, I called and spoke with them on the phone. I'm very satisfied with them.
