Jeff,
One in the same...Savage Auto Parts....sort of. My Grandfather (my dads dad) started the business in Gary, IN. Moved here after the depression and he ran it with his three sons (Ernie,Bob,Art). My dad (Ernie) and brothers sold the business in 75 (I was 15). Hank bought it and liked the name (well known in the auto parts circle), and kept it Savage! So I wish they could have "saved" the business for me but I didn't have a clue what I wanted to do after school. Plus mom told me later that dad didn't think the auto parts business was a good job to get into. DUH!?! I guess he saw the headaches that come with running yur own business.
PWD 72s... The vin # is 9116-600-199. On the door post is "Made in Germany (duh) 908-9-2 KUNSPHARZLACK". The guy didn't know where to look for the engine vin #. Neither do I! Could you tell me any more about it. It does have the A/C vents in the interior but no A/C in the engine bay. I thought that was strange. Is the green interior easy to find? The seats need redone. Carpet needs replaced.
Jim
