Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 197 reviews, reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently mention that online orders arrive very quickly, and products are securely packed to ensure they remain in pristine, damage-free condition during transit. Many people warmly appreciate the helpful and polite technical assistance provided when choosing specific restoration components for their classic vehicles. However, some people mentioned facing ongoing issues with surprisingly high shipping costs and expensive delivery fees that made online purchases less appealing. A few other consumers also noted that occasionally ordered items arrived missing, slightly damaged, or requiring extra manual adjustments to fit properly on their classic cars.

Written by the company

When we started SS396.com, a Ground Up Motors company, we had one thing in mind: to bring the best quality restoration parts to everyone, from the weekend driver to the 1000-point restoration. Over the years, we have grown from one person operating out of a garage to our brand new 60,000+ square foot facility in Palm Coast, Florida. Despite our growth, our passion and vision have remained the same: to keep the excitement of classic American muscle running by providing the best parts available, an easy-to-use website, and the best customer support team.

Hi Frank, catalogs can take about 5-6 weeks to arrive. I don't have an order number or your last name, so I can't check on you order. But if it has been longer than that, give us a ring and ask a CSR to rush one out for you! Sorry for any inconvenience.

Product met expectation as usual

Product (Dipstick)met expectation as usual. Here is my concern. When I looked up thr part it showed $15.81 for delivery. When I checked out increased to $23 and some change. The young lady who took my order said there is nothing she could do that I must have seen it from a 3rd party site. I had her look up the part number on line as she saw it was your site. She stood by that she couldn't do anything. I find it hard to believe that your company wouldn't make it right based on the online pricing. I just did another search for a Dipstick for a 70 MONTE CARLO big block and ss396 still shows $15 and some change for delivery.I took a screenshot to share with you. I'm not crazy or being a pain. I'm willing to share with you so you can adjust your advertising. Feel free to call me or send me a email address to share with you.

Hi Richard, you must have seen it somewhere else, as shipping cost is reflected at the checkout screen only. Sorry for any confusion!

I like the material and the order got processed correctly. A little disappointed with the lack of communication created by the direct shipping. All’s good
I did respond to the email prior to this one, saying I hadn’t received it. I was incorrect, my neighbor took the package in out of the weather.
One more thing, there’s no indication as to what piece fits where…..it’s the cabin insulation, precut kit and should have some directions as to how to index the pieces properly

Bed Mat for 1969 El Camino

I received the bed mat for my '69 El Camino and it looks great! SS396.com had the best price on shipping, as it was a large rather heavy item. Came in great condition and I love it! ss396.com is Highly Recommended!

Hey Dan, I checked with our sales team on this. It shows the order was placed on 5/8, and the cancellation request was not received until 5/12. By that time, the order had already moved into the shipping process and could no longer be stopped before shipment. We apologize for the confusion regarding the timing and status updates.

With that said, we do want to help make this right. If you would like to return the item, we will provide a prepaid return shipping label, and once the item is received back, we will issue a full refund. Please contact our sales team to get this finalized, and answer any questions you may still have, at your earliest convenience. Thank you -
