Re: Big Shout-Out for Orielly's Auto Parts

Everybody complains about how hard it is to rebuild a truck today , I'll bet a few of you remember hitting 4 junk yards in one day looking for a fender or radiator or driving 50 miles to the only speed shop around to window shop for speed parts ? At least the guys working in those speed shops knew exactly what they were talking about and knew every part they had in stock , Brings back memories of sitting on the kitchen phone with the 4' cord for 20 minutes waiting to see if they had any left .

Yeah a kitchen phone , The one in the living room was for important phone calls . LOL
