I went to RPR Volvo Discount parts in Albany, Ca. yesterday-bought a new "made in Germany" water pump almost 1/2 price just to stock up since RPR is closing down in about 6 weeks permanently-I previously went in and bought about $200 worth of parts-like filters, belts, hoses, dist caps, rotors etc-and saved a bundle of $$$. He is even selling his desk manuals, and, I even got a "Volvo" necktie for $5. Pretty cool. Any of you who know RPR in Albany, if you haven't heard of his closing might want to check it out-and no-I am not associated with RPR or Rusty other than being a loyal customer of his for the last 30 years. He has even kept toys-yeah-toys in his shop-all discounted now. I know this is not a forum to sell stuff generally-and I'M not selling anything-but I'm hoping just to inform, and maybe some of our fellow bricksters who can, might go in and save a bunch for themselves. Sad to see him-his business go. He's given great prices over the years even before closing down-gonna miss him-well-his prices anyway-haha.

Question is-where do I shop for parts locally after he is gone?? and I dont mean the internet-the 'net is fine but when I need a part now-I need it "now".
