1A auto?

Anyone dealt with them for interior parts? As in seat covers etc? Thanks!

Re: 1A auto?

I bought some carpet for my T/A Clone from them on ebay, was more than happy with the price and the quality of the service and the item I bought.
when I go to do My Iroc's carpet early next year I'm going with them again.

Re: 1A auto?

I bought some window motors from them... still working, have yet to test the lifetime warranty

Jim sells the same stuff as A1 and Hawks and many others, great prices...
http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/af...jim85iroc.html (Buying from Jim85IROC...)

Be warned, the carpet deal...There were 2 companies making carpets for our cars, one better (non fading) than the other... the fading company bought out the non fading company... so who knows whats coming out now... You may still be able to get some old stock from the non fading one

Re: 1A auto?

Thanks! I had never heard of them before. I am going to order seat covers with matching door panels and carpet. I called and talked to Dan who said he is a member here, owned a 89RS. I don't mind spending the money if its good stuff. Who made the fading carpet? 1A sells ACC, are they good? Thanks a bunch for all the replies!

Fading carpet, ACC

See if you can get any of the ACS carpet, they have a premium 1000ct (as opposed to the regular 800ct).

Re: 1A auto?

ACS no longer exists... ACC bought them out. But check to see if they have their remaining stock... I got some...

Re: 1A auto?

Your car will rust out faster then the interior carpet will fade.

Re: 1A auto?

The operate out of my town, and I can vouch that they are a pretty good company.

Bought some stuff, and they let me pick it up at the warehouse and save on shipping!

Yup, bought something from them, it was a part for my dad's dodge truck; it went ok, I'm always hesitant buying something the first time unless I've read up on the company. For instance, until 2 years ago I never knew what 'summit racing' was...

Great comment btw!

On that note it seems true, my carpet is original on my 85 and I exposed some that was under my passenger seat and it was nice and shiny from not being under sunlight, now compare that to the carpet around my shifter... faded.

Re: 1A auto?

Thanks guys, I ordered a complete interior from them. The carpet is in and partially installed. If it fades it will match the rest of the interior!

So everything went smoothly? Glad to hear!


They operate out of an industrial park. It's a pretty decently sized company, started by some young guys about my age. I htink they have about 50 employees.

Re: 1A auto?

Figured I'd chime in here...

I'm the Dan that works for 1AAuto that talked to Eagle223usa (hope everything is what you wanted, let me know). I'm one of the guys running the sales department and more than happy to answer any questions I can about the products we offer. I'm not the owner, just one of the guys manning the phones. We are a relatively smallish company (about 50 of us) based out of Mass. I hope this isn't considered advertising, and apologize if it is. Feel free to PM if thats better.

as for carpeting, we sell ACC. ACC bought out ACS a little while back, so its just they are just one company now.
