Further down the road (OR 18), between Dundee and McMinnville, south of the small town of Lafayette, is British Parts Northwest.  Most of us in SLTOA have bought parts from this concern, which works out of a couple of warehouses (and one recently installed 40-ft container) perched on the Lafayette Highway.  What the heck, it’s on the way and I’m one of the company’s customers, I decided to drop in and take a look.

The joint was jumping, with several people moving around the various buildings bringing in and dispatching parts.  Still, owner Greg Sherick (who owns an ’80 TR8) happily gave me the grand tour of the property and yes, we talked plenty about the joys of LBC ownership and the LBC parts business.

Glad I stopped by.  If anyone who reads this finds they’re driving between Portland and Lincoln City, stop by and say hello.  It’ll be worth your time.
