    Funny thing is, here in Texas everybody who is an old car guy knows, or at least knows of, Stacey, unless they just arrived from North, East, West, or yes, even wet right out of the river from the South. One of the nicest guys you'll ever meet, a solid businessman who knows his stuff, knows his business, and knows what something is worth.

    That is outstanding!!! The old "Diamond in the rough" if you will. It really makes ya think how many of these folks are still out there stock piling all of these parts. Good looking on the contact info!

    I lived there for 6 years and never knew about him. I think I can toss some business his way to. Thanks for posting this

    I miss having such parts stores around, where you could walk in, tell the person what you need, they understood and could actually tell you if they have it.

    Hats off to you sir, I can certainly see why you have customer loyalty. In fact, I plan to give you a ring for parts tomorrow!

    I just moved to Austin FROM Dallas and I still can't get over the fact that I lived next to this guy for 10 YEARS and didn't even know he was there!

    UGH!!

    Don't believe everything you see and hear.
    I've been to his place and he is a swell fellow for sure but............there are used parts in amongst all that "NOS" and when I asked about a rear axle for a Model A, I was shown an axle that may have been for a T or gawd knows what, but it sure wasn't for a Model A.
    I'm not saying "don't patronize the man's shop" because I'm not saying that at all. What I am saying is when buying old car parts, stay alert and ask all the right questions. The guy and his shop are a valuable resource and should be respected as such, just keep your wits about you.
