Two Thumbs Hawks Third Gen!!!!

I just wanted to give Bruce and all his sales staff a two thumbs up on the buisness they run here. I emailed jenni on tuesday evening on a list of parts i needed for my 92 restoration project at 9:18 wed morning i recieved a email back from her with pricing and stock. Due to the high shipping cost on headliners. I figured i would drive down 2hrs from charlotte and check Hawks Third Gen out. I called just to verify everthing was still in stock. I did talk to bruce. I was on my way, when i got to hawks I was treated with the nicest sales staff ever. Also his place is super nice!!! while i was there I saw three sales staff Plus Bruce on the phone for the half hour i was there selling parts. I just wanted to say thanks to bruce and his entire sales staff for doing such a fine job and Hawks thanks for being here for us to have a place to get parts and answers from. To all of the younger generation that money is burning a hole in your pocket. Be Patient. Two thumbs up for Hawks!!!!!!

Re: Two Thumbs Hawks Third Gen!!!!

I think it is generally accepted here that Hawks is a reputable supplier of Thirdgen parts with reasonable prices and good customer service. At least that has been my impression of them.

Re: Two Thumbs Hawks Third Gen!!!!

I think it is a testament ( I guess it goes with "god experience" :-) to how popular third gens really are and Hawks standing in our community that they are usually quite busy, so be patient. I've used them for a number of items, so keep calling, you will get through and they will take excellent care of you, and don't expect a return email the same day. Two big thumbs up for Hawks.

Definitely a problem outside of Hawks control....Possible email failure by yours or Hawks ISP.

Did they conduct a clearance sale last Nov 15? Was it like a Halloween promo?

My direct e-mail is:

jenihill@hawksthirdgenparts.com

On an occasion there could be issues sending/receiving e-mail. Don't particularly know for sure. However, I leave at 4PM daily and for now I am here at 11AM. Send away, and I will do my best to respond as quickly as possible


Thanks Jeni
