Bill Edwards Seat Belts

Upholstery mods and more. is where you find them.

Bill has turned the contact info duties over to his wife and she is updating their files into her computer. Telling people to avoid their business is a bit extreme. Maybe kicking someone when they're down is your thing, but don't tell others they should do it too. That's pretty low in my book! Respectfully, Harley.

I agree, while it is frustrating, it seems to me that many of the "businesses" supplying e-body parts and services are more of a one man shop doing it for the love of it rather than the money.  I spoke with Bill at length and he seemed like a great guy that loves what he does and cared about the cars and the people he was working with.  Hoping his health improves so he can continue to provide support to the hobby

Well, just an update...
As noted above, I sent my belts to him in February of 2021...
As Bill had his leg amputated in December of last year I wasn't hopeful, but we communicated in February and things looked good.
Then we communicated in March.
Then he said they were sent in April.
Then he said the USPS was holding them.
Now he has recently had his other foot removed.
Emails and calls are going nowhere.
When I am able to speak with him the interactions are friendly...but I really feel I am being lied to.
Does anyone live near him? I'd pay you to stop over and pick them up if they really are done.

I feel like I need to start looking for a complete set of replacement belts. 2 years ago I wasn't worried, now I am.
I need to move on.
If anyone has a set of black 1970 E Body belts, let me know.

I would be looking as well - set of black standard belts for June '70 build...

I wanted to provide an update for the benefit of anyone else considering Bill.
For me, it has now been over 3 years since I sent him my belts.
A constant pattern of outright lies and 'forgetfulness', mixed with his numerous health problems.
I neither have my old belts, nor my restored belts.
Bill wont/can't respond to emails or phone calls.
I sent a registered letter...got nothing.
Basically, he stole my old belts.
I investigated taking him to small claims, but way too much of a hassle from half a country away.
Mic drop! I'm out.

I'm grateful to Terry for selling me a great set.

His/their website is down too. Unresponsive on other forums as well.

That is infuriating that he'd blow someone off for so long and the belts end up lost.
I had him restore a set of belts for me around 15 years ago and got them back quickly.  I remember I had a nice conversation with him, and as I recall he even told me he had a V code Challenger.
His situation reminds me of a similar situation that happened with Passions 4 Mopars on wiper motor restorations.  I had Kim do 2 three speed wiper motors done 12 or 13 years ago.  They came back quickly beautifully restored and both are installed on my Challengers.
At some point later, I started seeing posts on Mopar forums about Kim very similar to the stories we now on Bill with seat belts. People sending in motors and not getting them back, calling her and getting excuses, her sister was sick, a hurricane hit and knocked out power for awhile, she had an accident, yada yada.
Sad when good resources go bad.

Sad when good resources go bad.

Couldn't agree with you more. It seems like good old fashion honesty, integrity, respect and treat others the way you'd like to be treated is slowly disappearing.
