Classic Car Parts Suppliers — Trusted Directory
A hand-picked list of suppliers we’d recommend to a fellow restorer. Marque specialists, broad catalogues, and auction platforms — honestly described, with affiliate links disclosed.
British Marque Specialists
The UK specialists who keep Jaguars, Triumphs, MGs, Austin-Healeys and their kin on the road. Most ship worldwide with generous catalogues and helpful technical staff.
The definitive Jaguar parts source. Coventry-based, they stock an extraordinary range of NOS, quality reproduction, and reconditioned parts for the full Jaguar lineage. Their catalogue is thorough, their part descriptions honest, and they clearly distinguish between part grades. First stop for any Jaguar restoration.
One of the oldest British classic parts businesses in the Americas, Moss has been supplying restorers since 1948. Strong across the entire British Leyland portfolio — MGB, Midget, Sprite, Healey, TR series, Spitfire, and XK Jaguars. Excellent for MG and Austin-Healey. US-based with fast domestic shipping.
Lincoln-based specialists with one of the most detailed parts catalogues available for British Leyland vehicles. The go-to source for Triumph TR2–TR8, Spitfire, GT6, Stag, and Rover SD1 and P6. Staff know the cars well and their website parts search is genuinely useful. Ships worldwide.
American Muscle & Classic Specialists
Dedicated houses for Mustang, Camaro, Corvette, and their kin. These suppliers invest in tooling for correct reproduction parts that the general catalogues never reach.
The most comprehensive GM restoration parts catalogue available. If you’re restoring a 1955–72 Chevy or Pontiac, Classic Industries almost certainly has the part. They manufacture much of their own reproduction stock to factory correct specifications. Particularly strong on Camaro and Chevelle body, trim, and interior.
NPD is the authority on 1964½–1973 Mustang restoration parts. Their Mustang catalogue is exceptional in depth — particularly for concours-correct body, trim, and interior items. Also excellent for early Ford Bronco and GM A-body cars. Multiple US warehouse locations mean fast shipping across North America.
General Catalogues & Marketplaces
Broad-range suppliers and marketplaces useful when the specialists don’t have what you need, or when you’re shopping for service parts and want competitive pricing.
RockAuto aggregates multiple parts brands at catalogue prices. Ideal for service and mechanical parts — filters, gaskets, bearings, belts, brake hardware — across a huge range of vehicles including many classics. Not a specialist and won’t have concours body or trim items. For safety-critical parts, check the brand before ordering: quality varies by supplier tier.
The largest marketplace for used, NOS, and hard-to-find classic car parts. Particularly valuable for finding NOS stock from old dealer and warehouse inventories. Search using the correct part number for best results. Exercise normal caution: check seller feedback, ask for additional photos of NOS packaging, and use buyer protection for expensive items.
Hemmings has been the reference publication for American classic car enthusiasts since 1954. Their online classifieds remain one of the best places to find complete cars, major assemblies, and hard-to-find parts — particularly from specialist dealers and marque-specific vendors advertising in their platform. Also worth reading for market valuation context.

Which supplier is best for Jaguar parts?
SNG Barratt is widely considered the definitive source for Jaguar parts, covering the XK, E-Type, XJ, and later Series models. They ship worldwide from their Coventry base and clearly distinguish between NOS, reproduction, and pattern parts in their catalogue. Moss Motors also covers Jaguar in their British range and is a solid second source.
Where do I find parts for a classic Ford Mustang?
National Parts Depot (NPD) is the most comprehensive source for 1964½–1973 Mustang parts, with an extensive concours-correct body and trim catalogue. For mechanical service items across American classics, RockAuto is a cost-effective option.
Which supplier is best for Triumph parts?
Rimmer Bros in Lincoln, England is the go-to source for Triumph (TR2–TR8, Spitfire, GT6, Stag) and Rover parts. They publish one of the most detailed parts catalogues available for British Leyland vehicles. Moss Motors also covers Triumph as part of their British range, and is particularly strong on Spitfire and TR series items.
Can I find NOS (New Old Stock) parts through these suppliers?
SNG Barratt, Moss Motors, and Rimmer Bros all stock NOS parts where available and clearly label them in their catalogues. NOS availability varies by marque and part — early Jaguar and MG parts have more NOS stock in the supply chain than most. eBay Motors is also a strong source for individual NOS finds, particularly from old dealer and warehouse stocks.
Is RockAuto reliable for classic car parts?
RockAuto is reliable for service and mechanical parts — filters, gaskets, bearings, brake hardware — across a wide range of vehicles including many classics. They aggregate multiple brands at competitive prices. They are not a specialist and don’t stock body, trim, or concours parts. For safety-critical items, check which brand you’re getting and research its reputation before ordering.
