welcome to the wal-mart syndrome. Although I'm sure his health played a big part in this decision, younger generations just don't appreciate "local speed shops" when they can just go to pep boys, advanced, auto zone, etc and deal with people who know nothing but what the computer tells them. These places aren't "speed shops" but they take away the bread and butter for small business parts stores. Auto manufacturers are equally to blame. Who's going to need to go to a parts store when they have a 5 or 10 year warranty? Those warrantys are just to keep you going back to the dealer
