On second thought, I think its better to try every other possible source before dealing with Robert Hernandez of rareelcos.
I recently bought a set of aluminum brake drums from him on ebay. Paid something like $65 + $12 shipping. After a few weeks I get this busted up box with one drum. I waited a few days thinking he shipped each one seperately. I emailed him to ask and after a day or two he responded telling me they were both in the same the same box. When I complained that I only received one, his response was "something sounds fishy, how could he put 2 in the box and I only get one?" Like I'm a theif! Maybe if this guy packed them in a better, stronger box they may have survived the trip from california to ny. So I sent him pics of the resealed broken box and so far after 3-4 days he hasn't answered me. So $75 later I have one drum.
He thinks its my fault?! How could that be? I paid what he asked and he packed and shipped. I have no control over how he packs or ships and he offers no insurance.
The screwed up thing is this guy has just about any elco/malibu part you could want, but he doesn't care what happens after he has your $$$!
Best advice is buy from him only if you really can't find it elswhere and only pay what you can afford to lose because he won't accept any responsibility when a problem arrises.
