Spoken with him a few times and he's even got a sense of humor! Ive called and asked "Is Doug Around?" and his reply was "Yeah. Im Doug Around..." He gave me his gal-pals number to email pics to as he "doesnt do emails". I can almost relate to that. He said he'd much rather do face time with a customer.
On a side note, he mentioned another local old timer/Buick parts guy that retired a few years ago and moved to Arizona (?). Doug bought "several" dumpsters full of Buick stuff (mostly 60's) from this guy. Do ya think his prices are within limits? I am thinking about replacing the entire passenger side CORNER on the back instead of patching in pieces. Maybe a repair like 2x2 feet. After this is in, its off to a new trunk floor and paint! Bill
