I miss this show and event trailer too. and this business ad, that was in HPP. what an honor. I started getting parts from PY when they sold parts from Chris’s home, and onto each bigger step up to the warehouse in Hatfield. Truly missed as a parts Co. I can still drive down to visit, but the only part I was able to still get there was a new trunk lock for my 69. and see everyone.
Seems we've all been spoiled by 'free shipping' from Amazon and ebay. Even though the regular shipping price may seem cheaper than Ames and others, you have to remember that Amazon has a special deal with the USPS on their rates. Also the price of all the shipping vendors (USPS, Fed Ex, UPS, etc.) have gone through the roof in the past few years. But you are correct about a small order. But I'll be Ames making no money on their shipping; they'd be lucky to break even.

And we all miss the PY Trailer and seeing Chris running around!
