I know it's over a year old, but concerning that receipt from the Costa Mesa store - that is Pat McMahon's signature as the employee and the customer was indeed Chuck "Shakey Jake" Babbit. I used to write Ed G. Farnsworth when ever I wrote something up for him.
And whenever Kerry Morse from Troutman & Barnes came in it was Harry P. Clapsaddle
Don't know why now, but we thought we were pretty dang funny then.

And John L. you may remember that entire group of off road racers that used to shop at Costa Mesa and included John Kennedy - we wrote all their stuff up to Norris Racing - even though it later turned out their resale number was for a boat shop or a der Wienerschnitzel or something odd., We found that out when we got audited by the Board of Equalization and they came in and made us do inventory while they checked it. I will never forget counting stacks of CoCo mats that were probably 5 feet tall and cost only a few dollars while that huge stack of NPR pistons and cylinders they didn't even bat an eye at.

Hi Don !
I bought most of Shaky Jake's VW  memorabilia and found that receipt in one of the Hot VW magazines.
See you in Europe in a few months !

I'm pleased you enjoy the stories of days long ago.  When I took those photos I had no idea I was recording history that I could share some 40 years later.
