Not your typical auto parts counter man

Not your typical auto parts counter man ....

 

Damn. I need to start shopping there!

 

This whole scene needs to be re-created at the Smithsonian so current and future generations can see what a real parts store and parts man look like.

 

Can I get a 5th of jack with my cap, rotor and wires.....

 

kinda of reminds me of some of the old parts stores i used to work at. only we keep all the booze under the counter.lol in the town i workied in if you were a counterman, you drank. i think thats when mt drinkin really started. 19 yrs old workin the counter and drinkin bourbon all day. god i loved it.must have did it for almost 25 yrs.hey 38ford, i sold parts and i never looked like that. i had long hair and earrings. still do lol

 

Great, but always remember: don't drink and wrench.

 

Do you get distracted by the booze while shopping for parts or distracted by the parts while booze shopping?

 

...and Snickers bars too. That's truly a one-stop shop!

 

you mean I have been doing it wrong for this long. I thought I was on to something. How am I suppose to get people to help if I dont provide beer?

 

leaves me out havent drank in 17yrs and im allergic to chocolate : (

 

i say photoshop!

 

One Stop Auto Shop.

Service with a smile.

 

all right, all you haters; what happens when he starts in asking model, make , and year fer yer BOOZE? Bwuhahahahaha...

come on down and see me in my new job.... behind the parts counter. yep; i'm employed again.... so, get off my lawn you kids!

 

Back in the seventies a buddy and I went through a drive-in liquor store in Ohio...they had booze, ammunition and condoms at the register...

 

20yr old scotch for for when ya working on 60yr old jalopy,maybe he'll get cha drunk before taking advantage of ya {price wise}
clean & sober for for over 20yrs but----- some days????

 

Rrrrrrright...

 

that's what workin' on cars will do to you...........

 

i think that was the same place on the northside of Rapid City ,damn good time on a Friday nights! shoot yer mouth off-shoot yer gun off - & shoot yer ....well dream of shooting off some thing else

 

I was going to open an autoparts out of my garage at the retirement place, but I was going to have sheep.

Good idea, lots of cars have been built and fired on whiskey over the years.

 

If it was a drive-thru then it would be perfect

 

If you need to go in there you won't be able to drive through.

 

pennsylvania has given us some great combinations; the united states, the reeses peanut ****er cup, and now the part store/liquor store.
what's it called? "the nip boys"? "parts and proof"? "oreilly's"?

 

Maybe.. gotta love the concept though. I've had some trips to the parts store (repeated trips maybe...) where a shot or 4 would have straightened things out.

I knew one parts guy that drank beer allllll day. Skinny as a rail, subsisted on Budweiser and Camels. Never saw him sloppy or make any mistakes. It did split the partnership up though.

And the guy probably knows where every part is and doesnt have to look for a number on a computer to look for it on a stock shelf. I remember stores and guys like him. Sure miss that

 

Are all of those "additives" (like Bardahl, STP, Rislone, etc)? Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

Two great things that go good together....Now if I could get the guys at the pull a part to run a hot dog and beer cart around we'd have all the great combos covered.

 

When I started in the auto repair biz, I had a great parts guy, he was a drunk, but a great parts guy. Anyway being the age of computers, and needing to hide the bottle, all you had to do was know the "part number" he gave his bottle if you needed a nip. JD15 was a fifth of Jack JB15 was Jim Beam. Punch that into the computer and it gave you shelf and bin location. Keith

 

Looks like freakin' Nirvana to me!

 

So what do you have to live for?
