Ever wonder what a actual parts warehouse looks like full walk-through doors are closing forever

[@hankclingingsmith8707]

I bet you dad's truck is really nice. I see a lot of newer updates inside. Love my 7.3. it's hauled all the lumber to build 30 houses, made me many millions of dollars over the past 20 years. Still driving it daily.

I worked at ABCO auto parts in West Caldwell NJ for years it was 2 floors but nothing like the size of that place I think like 2000 Sq Ft. I also use to turn rotors and drums that was in 1977 so a few years ago :)

[@DavisDrives]

It was a different time, for sure!

Thanks for sharing

You can believe im gonna Start making phone calls as soon as im finished watching this video my man.

[@dodgelaramie6828]

Yes nothing beats a one stop shop to get some parts for a repair or restore job. People have been telling me I’m getting old because I like to use the same places all the time but there’s something called loyalty and also convenience that go a long way. And if I’m not wrong did I see a ‘08+ king ranch interior on dad’s 7.3? I’ve seen the truck in the background many times but wouldn’t insult you and ask a price for something with sentimental value.

[@DavisDrives]

Yes sir somewhere around 09 or maybe 10. We decided to swap out the interior for him. It has the dash the door panels and the full interior from me King Ranch the truck itself is an 01 7.3 good eye on noticing those modifications.

U should buy that building! Davis Auto parts...or a squarebody warehouse! 😆

[@DavisDrives]

Would have done it but didn’t know building was for sale missed it

[@rocks-if6uh]

Not only do I have tow truck experience of 21 yes I use to work at a retail auto parts store and was asst mnger at a wholesale under car parts store with 10 years experience back in the 1980's-90's

[@rocks-if6uh]

Wow that is a awsome parts store and absolutely huge.

[@DavisDrives]

Yes it is

[@ashleyconnelley1856]

Iv gotta finish this later my man.

[@bryangaribay4574]

if you bought that building after everything was gone you could combine all of your businesses into one place, it's so big you'd have plenty of space for everything

[@bobbrinkerhoff3592]

There is a flaw in that plan , that many people fail to consider . If something were to happen to that big building , a fire , or major storm , you just lost everything , being in multiple buildings , you should only lose a portion of what you have under roof .

Tidewater fleet is always buying out massive bulk It's just a phone call away if they want to make the call to Norfolk

[@dutchdog804]

Bellwood flea market down the road from y'all got sold as well. Some big time development going on in that area. Might boost your business some brother 👊

[@tucksmith8300]

I grew up less than a 1 1/4 mile from Bellwood Flea Market

[@DavisDrives]

It definitely will change something haha more than likely property tax lol

[@redfox5911]

That’s a shame, been going in there since I was young and been dealing with them since I was a teenager.

[@DavisDrives]

[@gregwelch2459]

Awesome

[@ashleyconnelley1856]

Are those good transmissions and what kind if so

[@david-lawnguyinfresno6321]

Think of the knowledge that the employees have after all of those years.

[@jeremyladnier687]

The internet putting them out of business

[@DavisDrives]

Part of it, but part of it in this case was owner being 80 years old retirement time

[@rocks-if6uh]

Hate to see parts stores with so many years going out of business 😢

[@DavisDrives]

This one’s been around for 62 years

[@tucksmith8300]
