Lebarron Bonney - still in business?

#1 Post by Phil Parry »

Does anyone know if Lebarron Bonney is still going strong? I have lost count of the number of times I have phoned them and not managed to speak to anyone - answerphone only. Their website is defaulting to 404 errors a lot of the time too.

I’d like to place an order but struggling...

Try Autos International instead. If they cannot fix their website and do not answer the phone then it is time to go elsewhere.
If I had known I would live this long I would have pushed the envelope a little harder.

Right on David. Autos is fair and square. I often have them make my interiors, and install them here. …………………...Jim.

LeBarron Bonney is still in business, but will no longer sell the hardboard to the public. They are 20 minutes from my house. I went down and couldn't get any more. They say it is because they are moving to a new facility and no longer have the storage space.

I just heard that they have filed for bankruptcy and let go all the staff...
