i need to make a trip to get some bigger items, restoration. i live in Canada north of Montana. shipping is lots of loot so i am thinking of making a quick trip.
is there a Model A parts supplier in Montana? or what is the closest one to Montana.
i tried doing a google search but am having a hard time.

I think the closest one would be Berts in Colorado.

Yes Berts- that is a bit of a ride, but you will get everything at once.

If you do opt for Bert’s, call ahead and go over your pick list with them so they can confirm what they have and retrieve it from the warehouse.

Ditto on Berts, very customer-friendly. They will go out of their way to make sure your trip to them is successful.

They also have a large selection of used parts if you need any parts that are not reproduced or prefer original.

I have a couple of Toronto friends who had US PO boxes just across the border at Niagara.
