Les Singh asks: "What's with IAP? Anybody been in touch with them 
lately? I ordered stuff from them and got an acknowledgement on June 17 
but still no delivery, and they're not replying to email."

I'm surmising Les ordered something they have on back order. Several 
months ago I ordered four pairs of the small molded Spider door drains 
and small rear door gasket. Didn't pay much attention until I went to 
drop them in to the various car's Door boxes. They were all for the 
right side. I sent half back and received the front ones in a week or 
two along with a note the rear seals were on B/O. Later received a card 
saying they would arrive on 8/15. Then received another double card a 
couple of weeks later asking if I wanted to cancel the order or have 
them ship once it arrived. I checked the ship when ready and dropped in 
the mail. They arrived on the 13th.

My point is I was amazed at how much effort they went to to make sure I 
was satisfied. I just ordered a set of springs and and Koni reds for 
Straw colored '69 Spider from IAP. Ordered last Friday, was told they'll 
be here Friday or Monday. I assume they  will be. One advantage of 
calling them directly - though not too handy for those on the other side 
of the world -  is I can find out what is in stock as I order each item.

Should they not arrive, I'll let you all know, but feel they are 
definitely in business.

Another possibility is  they might have a lot of help on vacation and 
are short handed, but admit an order in since June is not a good thing.
