The oldest and largest marketer of "everything automotive" is JC Whitney.
Founded in 1915, JC Whitney has become a popular place to go for custom car
accessories and auto body kits. Do you have a hard-to-find item? If JC Whitney
doesn't have it, they will find it for you. Everything you need for your car is
located in this automotive superstore. If you can't get to the store in LaSalle,
Illinois, then visit their website (jcwhitney.com).
The website itself
is a virtual warehouse of custom car accessories, automotive parts, auto body
kits (whether that be for repairs or just upgrades), and anything else you can
imagine. The navigational ease of the JC Whitney website makes you feel like an
automotive professional.
On the left-hand side of the site, a search
engine breaks down your options by make, model, and year of your vehicle. An
added feature is that every vehicle search is saved for the next time you log on
to their site. Once you select your vehicle, a list of sections will appear
asking what kind of item you're looking for. Custom car accessories are in bold,
but everything else that would work with your car is present.
If you're
more in the mood for searching for a specific item instead of by car model,
there is a user-friendly search engine at the top left-hand side of the site,
which allows you to find your item via keyword or item identification number.
For example, if you run a search for "auto body kits", it will show you the most
relevant categories for you to choose from.
From there, the site goes
one step further. If you used the vehicle model search before you use the
general keyword search, the left hand side of the site will provide you an
option to narrow your search by your vehicle model.
If you're not the
type to sit at the computer and search through the pages of their online
catalogue, JC Whitney also has a print catalogue available by mail. In addition
to custom car accessories and parts, and auto body kits, JC Whitney sells parts
and accessories for motorcycles, ATVs, and RV campers.
The site has won
a 2007 Best of the Web award from Internet Retailer Magazine, and it is easy to
see why. Whether you're a novice car owner or a seasoned automotive mechanic, JC
Whitney caters to all levels of expertise.
You can visit the JC Whitney
retail store and headquarters for yourself, which carries everything listed on
their website along with some rare items not found anywhere else. The store
holds daily and weekend in-store specials and carries discontinued items,
apparel, hard-to-find parts, and unique accessories. For those willing to travel
a bit for custom car accessories, the store is located in LaSalle, Illinois,
just southwest of Chicago along Interstate 80.
