I sang the praises of that store on this list before. There are
NAPA/CarQuests here...and they're just like Discount/O'Reilly's/etc.
I guess I'll just be shopping at RockAuto (or where ever it is I find
the cheapest parts online) from now on. Those stores are all a joke, at
least here.
The last machine work I had done locally was cylinder boring on an
RZ350. They gave me back an oval-shaped cylinder, and I'm still puzzled
at how they managed to do that. There's no way I let anyone here touch
anything else.
