As of Friday just been i am No longer a Joiner and am moving into a job which is more up my alley.
My farther in law and I have brought a company in Hawkesbay that is called ProParts that has been running for approx 5 years. We deal in everything for race cars being speedway, Drag, Circuit, Hot rod classic etc etc etc. We source alot of stuff out of the states and pretty much everywhere else. We have a pretty extensive computer system and suppliers that we can gain instant costings for parts required out of america from a wharehouse that stocks 500 different brands.
I will be managering the shop and am pretty excited as it is something that i have alot of interest in. I will have to sit down and come up with a plan on some sort of deal for NZ Datsun club members for purchasing of items. We take over the company in 2 weeks.
Please have a look at our website so you can have a look at what we deal in but keep in mind the site hardly touches the surface. http://www.proparts.co.nz/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Cheers Craig

So now you will be able to come to the cruises in the south Island and classify them as a legitimate business expense.

Re: LIFE CHANGING EXERCISE
Probably the easiest way to explain it is we sell everything for speedway and if we dont have it we can source it either from another one of our stores or get it in for you. We supply allot of gear to sprintcars, modifieds super stock and standard and midgets etc. Have a look at page it has a little bit of what we deal in

Re: LIFE CHANGING EXERCISE
Well the obvious next step is a company sponsored demo car.
Id be keen to know if you have a website set up etc. I also work in a parts store now. But it sounds like yours is going to be a much larger one than ours.
Sounds like with all the products you are going to be able to offer we might need to start an account with you guys though.
