Now, let’s get to know the “Guess the Car” champion.

CM: How long have you been working in the auto parts business?  

GR: I started in the auto parts business in 1976 and also have worked in engine remanufacturing and high-performance engine sales. I am currently in a heavy-duty truck parts distributor managing their axle and suspension sales to OEM semi-trailer manufacturers, but I still get calls for fleet-shop pickup parts and all the auto parts for our employees.

CM: What do you like most about your job?

GR: I like being able to custom engineer something that hasn’t been done before. Doesn’t happen often, but it can be rewarding.

CM: What’s the strangest question a customer has asked you?  

GR: I had a young woman once ask if I had any wiper blades to fit her Chevrolet Mustang.

CM: What’s the coolest car you’ve ever owned or worked on?

GR: I’ve spec’d valvetrains for NASCARs and for record-breaking dragsters. The most challenging project was converting an alcohol-burning, turbocharged Corvair to Weber side-draft carburetors and jetting them properly.

CM: Do you have any interesting hobbies? What do you do for fun?

GR: I am currently writing a trilogy screenplay about “The Adventures of Major Tom.” For fun, I have a killer stereo, and I like to barbeque.

CM: What’s your dream car?

GR: I have a 1986 Dodge Conquest TSI, but I think that I would rather have a 1972 Mach 1 Mustang.
