He lived in the Atlanta area for many years. He travels..........a good bit. He just falls into stuff by talking to people. Basically a good guy........but it is his business so........ and he knows what stuff is worth.....and raises it up a little. I have bought parts, pieces and a car from him. He will be in Pigeon Forge most likely........he almost always is. DR .
