January 2011 starts my 53rd year in the auto parts business. I started out in 1958 and stayed with the same company until 1986. In January 1986, I heard about a store that was catering to people restoring old cars. This sounded like a great opportunity to use all the skills I have gained over the past 40+ years and put them to use.

I came to Then and Now Automotive, as a manager, to lend my knowledge of old car parts. My specialties include cars from the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s…because, like I always say, “I was there”.
