Rich, while I am thinking about it--which NAPA do you go to? Yesterday I 
stopped at the one out west of 60th and Grover. I think that is a warehouse 
for napa parts.? The guy I talked to said they ( NAPA CORP) are no longer 
connected to the source of older car parts that they did have. Do you (or 
anyone)  know anything about that?............................MO
