It's possible that computers crash and email isn't the most reliable way to do the initial contact.   [Reply]  [No Email]

I am thankful to have him as a source for Cockshutt parts.   [Reply]  [No Email]

The poster probably figured like I would that he has a full time shop-repair parts business with a 9 to 5 work time. Possibly with some hired help. And not as a part time job. We can easily guess wrong on something like that.   [Reply]  [No Email]

As said, Phil (as well as a few other Cockshutt enthusiasts) is a walking encyclopedia of knowledge on Cockshutt tractors. He is a very busy man with a day job and busts his butt to send orders out before the UPS/USPS deadline. I have purchased parts from Phil and without his knowledge I would have been sunk. He doesn't always immediately answer email or phone calls because it's just him and his wife who tirelessly help out people wanting parts and a little advice or knowledge. In my opinion, if that wait is not okay with the Cockshutt owner/restorer, they need to collect a different brand.   [Reply]  [No Email]

With John Deere and Farmall there are countless part suppliers/dealers. With Cockshutt there are just a few and Phil is the one we all look at for the mass majority of ours parts. It is a lot of work for one man to keep going. Once Phil is gone...I don't know what the heck we are going to do. I know I don't have the quarter of the knowledge Phil has and I sure don't have the time to sell parts like he does let along store them, organize them, and then haul them around Canada and the US for us crazy collectors.   [Reply]  [No Email]
