Mt Joy has probably a dozen of those racks hanging from the rafters. Don't know if they've got spare parts for them or not, but they may. Probably worth giving them a call to see. http://www.mountjoy

Yes, though sadly, the typical chain type auto parts store doesn't see it that way. A good parts person will spend 15 minutes with you figuring out why a given widget doesn't fit your car when it's s

I can see two reasons immediately not to do limited runs, particularly for something like the GT6. First is taxation. You pay inventory tax on the items you have on the shelf. Doesn't matter how dust

You can write off or depreciate equipment, not inventory. What state charges "Inventory Tax"? Inventory costs are part of the cost of goods sold and are therefore a tax write-off not a tax burden. --
