This is not a joke. I just ran into a guy that was the major player in custom mini truck parts in the 70's and 80's. Get this, he has flex thru windows IN STOCK, air dams IN STOCK and still has the molds, fiberglass fenders and hoods and molds in stock, LaVan sunroofs in stock. He has tonaue covers in stock. Bubble rear windows, shadow rear window covers, fender flairs, sun visors (3 different types) for Datsuns, LUV's and couriers. Basically he never sold his stock from the old school days and it has been in a warehouse since. I will be going over on Tuesday to check it out. Some of you might have remembered his name, Steve Van.

He is the real deal, I remember his shop when I was a kid. By the way he hates computers. He will be giving me a list middle of next week and I will pass on the info, after I go shopping that is.

Too bad I don't still live in Cali, I could offer to do his computer stuff in exchange for a warehouse run through :)

Like I said I will be going over his inventory with him next week.

Here is a problem, he can be greedy, he has the goods and we don't. He was real cool on the phone.
