Frank-

Oh man my Dad lived at Warshowski's (Is that how you spell it?). He had a couple Model 'A' Fords and he used to get parts there often. Now in the early 70's when my brother was tuning his 71 Z-28, the place to go was Grand Automotive in Broadview. I had frequent trips there as a young boy. I'll have to ask but when my Mom was moving I found an old I-94 highway sign with a vintage Motion sticker on it. Not sure if my Bro used them for parts to.

I remember going to Warshawski's once or twice. Was a JC Whitney sort of place by my recollection. Also recall buying some stuff from Tony Christian at Grand. Mostly shopped w/Ray at Dixon Automotive or Jim's World of Speed as they were a bit more local to me.
