Another happy customer ...
Hi Randy,
Just to let you know my shopping experience at Mr. Haney’s was great! When I went looking for an original style vintage paper cup dispenser for the bathroom in my new house I never expected to find one on an antique auto parts website! (Thanks Google)
The antique cup dispenser and vintage gas station soap dispenser I purchased from Mr. Haney are both in place and looking good in my new bathroom. I even copied off the Mr. Haney descriptions from your website, framed them, and they are on display beside the dispensers. I have received lots of fun comments from guests…and my husband enjoys my Mr. Haney finds as much as I do. Thank You for making my day.

Hi Randy,
I ordered and received your Official 12-volt Conversion Guide along with a copy of The Alternator Gazette. This is great info and good reading, easy to understand. I had to let you know that I am Impressed. Thanks again for all of your help.

Dear Randy,
I have a 1955 Hudson Hornet, and I bought a 6-volt electric radiator, cooling fan from you. I installed it on my car then took a 300-mile trip from Henderson Nevada to Parowan Utah. I experienced no overheating problems whatsoever.
I couldn’t be more satisfied

Dear Randy,
My 1951 Ford has been changed over to 12 volts with your help. Runs Great! Thanks for all of your help.

Dear Randy,
Thank you for repairing the alternator I purchased from you. You did not charge me for the repairs even though the problem was clearly my fault. I do not feel it is fair to have you foot the bill for the repairs and the shipping so I have enclosed a check for twenty dollars to cover your shipping costs. Such fair treatment will definitely have me coming back to you for any parts I may need in the future!

I received your Ford Flathead alternator bracket; alternator, and DA plug in the mail today. Thanks for the great service. Folks complain about the Postal Service, but 2 days is pretty hard to beat. I installed your parts on my 51 Lincoln Cosmo. It really makes a difference in starting. My car is an original car from the west coast with only 25K actual miles. I really appreciate the work you have done to improve the hobby over the years. Keep up the good work. David Gustafson
Dear Randy,
Thanks for sending me the relay, oil seal, and kick down switch for my overdrive. I would not think about tackling the overdrive unit on my 1950 flathead without reading your overdrive book first. You made everything simple and easy to understand. Tom Bruno
Randy,
Hi, this is jolly with the 55 Ford and now that the car shows started I just want to let you know that your 6-volt alternator and the 6-volt Optima battery were the two best things I ever bought for the car. The car starts so nice, what a difference. Now, I have a lot more confidence when I am out there.

Randy,
I purchased one of your 6V alternators for my 1950 Dodge truck. I am very happy with it. It starts every time (even when cold) without using the choke or throttle. It was very important for me to retain the 6V system when I was restoring the truck. Everything works just as you said it would.

Dear Randy,
Just a quick note to say, THANK YOU!! Last week I placed an order for two Runtz and a Y-Block Ford alternator bracket for my 1955 Ford Ranch Wagon. I called you right in the middle of what I later learned was one of the worst ice storms the Midwest has seen in decades! Despite the ice storm in progress you politely took my order. You told me that you'd get it out as soon as possible but that it might be a few days. I said that I understood and that you should take care of yourself first and send out orders when things got better!
Imagine my surprise just 4 days later on SUNDAY morning when the mailman knocked on my door with a package from Fifth Avenue! I was completely floored. What was going to be a ho-hum Sunday turned into an enjoyable day of wrenching on my old wagon! You've always provided me with excellent service and advice, that's why I keep coming back, but this brings customer service to a new level! Thanks again and Happy Holidays!

Hello Randy. Thank you so much for the prompt service, and I am very impressed with the quality of your products. I wish every one else involved in old car business across the pond, was as professional as you are. Your alternator does just what you said it would and I could not be more pleased. www.cruizin-cars.co.uk

Randy, just a brief testimonial. I have installed your 6-volt alternator on two of my old cars, a 1948 Buick and a 1950 Packard. While the universal bracket was somewhat challenging on the Buick, I could not be more pleased with the results. I have bright headlights and (always) a fully charged battery that cranks right up. Feel free to give any prospective customer my name if you wish.

Randy, Enclosed is the pulley and nut I spoke with you about on Thursday. Dr. Callahan was very pleased to hear how willingly you offered to supply the correct pulley for his application. Dr. Callahan is a valued customer and I appreciate you efforts in helping us to complete this project to his satisfaction.

Randy, I want to thank you for your prompt service and technical support. It is a credit to your business and your integrity. While the problem was not with your product as I first suspected, you took the time to help me identify and correct the actual problem. I cannot thank you enough.
D. Dubicz
Randy, I bought your 12-Volt Conversion Guide and love it. I have a '55 Studebaker Commander that I plan to upgrade to 12-volts soon. I really appreciate your "common sense" style of writing and the way you explain things, so even a regular guy like me can understand! Thanks!

Hi Randy,
It's Mike Morris from Columbus New Jersey. I finally figured out what my issue was with my new 6 volt alternator installation. It turns out (2 coils later) that my points weren't sparking. I was really pulling my hair out trying to troubleshoot why I had spark to the coil but nothing to the distributor. Turns out it was the points, cleaned and reset them and I'm good to go. I mean I had the wiring harness stripped back and was laying under the dash running jumper wires etc. and just going nuts... Sometimes you just can't see the forest for the trees.
I agree with the other testimonials, This thing is great ! My old truck now starts as good (if not better) as my 1999 Ranger and my confidence level for taking it out for a cruise has risen 110 percent.
Thanks for a great product and thanks for the troubleshooting help.
Next will be that electric fuel pump, so I'll be in touch.

Randy,
I just wanted to thank you for the excellent 6 volt alternator that I recently installed in my 1951 Willys Overland Wagon. It has made a world of difference-strong starting hot or cold, bright headlights and interior lights, and no apparent problems with 6 volt instrumentation. A fine product. Thank you,

Dear Randy,
In the last three and a half years we have had the joy of restoring our 1940 Oldsmobile. There is an old saying that “if you want something done right, than do it yourself” but in this case we needed your help. For you it may have been a routine day, but for us the HELP, SERVICE, KNOWLEDGE, and quality PARTS you provided made it possible for us to realize our dream. We can’t THANK YOU enough for all of your help.
Sincerely,
Donald & Virginia Salois
Dear Randy
Those foglights that Mr. Haney sold me about a year ago are now mounted on this here '34 Ford Victoria.

Dear Randy
After restoring our '40 Ford to "original" we came up with a best of show beauty. To our surprise, we found that to drive at night was scary because 6-volt generator just does not cut it. I saw an ad in the Early Ford magazine for a 6 volt alternator built by Fifth Avenue Antique Auto Parts. I called them to discuss the benefits of an alternator vs. generator and was told I would not believe the difference because the lighting system would perform so much better. I ordered an alternator well remembering all of the things I've bought in the past that didn't quite live up to the sellers claims. However, I had to make our car safer to drive at night and if the Fifth Avenue alternator worked 1/2 as good as claimed, I would be happy.
I got the alternator installed and last night I went for a test drive. Wow, what a difference. I couldn't believe what I saw and considering what I couldn't see with the original system, I'm absolutely a Fifth Avenue fan. I had a few questions while installing the alternator and the headlight relay so I called Fifth Avenue for help. I've spent most of my life as a customer service manager and after seeing what most companies now pass off as "good" service Randy at Fifth Avenue was really super. He is polite and patient and when he says he will call back, he does.
Great product along with great service makes for happy customers.
Thanks to Randy at Fifth Avenue Antique Auto Parts!
