Default Ford body wood - Cubel's Fordwood
I am considering dropping a 1K chunk of hard-earned money on replacement body wood for my early V8. Has anyone out there had dealings with Cubel's Fordwood in Utah, either good or bad ? They require 100% down payment to start the order. Thanks.

Bad experience. I believe someone posted another source a while back towards the east cost that had good products. You might also post on the EV8 club site.

For my '33 I used Classic Wood at 1006 Raleigh st in Greensboro N C 27405 336-691-1344. Everything was sent right away except the rear qtr. window, which he told me was back ordered for two weeks until he could make more and two weeks later that piece showed up. Nice product and fits well. I highly recommend them.

Before I ordered, I had heard some not so favorable things here and on the HAMB about Cubel's

Another vote for Classic Wood in Greensboro. Excellent '36 wood.

Brad's in upstate Washington gets my vote based on the amount of new woodwork he has made for me.

100 shipping charge on a box that cost 31.00 to return to them. (overcharges are supposed to be refunded as per their site and never were)
Wood was returned and not picked up at their post office.
Voice mailbox is full
No longer responding to e-mails.
Caveat emptor.
Yikes! That just su--s!

I’ve used Brad’s and Cubel’sand there is no comparison to qualit and service. Brads wins on both. Cubels is consistent in only horrible communication and overpriced shipping. Brads finish work is nice and Cubels was rough. Another positive on Brads is he provides miscellaneous hardware and instructions, Cubels- nothing. Your experience may vary but I doubt it
