Saw where Barry Grant was closing down... Looked around a bit & seems to be true.

Man...just another sign of the times. Is the recession really over or has it been masked over by those politions trying to pull the wool over Americans eyes??

It's sad to see an icon such as BG die...they've been around for almost 30 years and are located near where my folks live in Georgia.

I'm glad I bought a Holley carb for the boat, I think they're still doing well though the EPA has put restrictions on new carb'd motors for boats starting in 2012.

We will see how things turn out but this is just another sign of the destruction of Americas middle class.

It was only a matter of time before they closed the oors cause most of there stuff is junk!!! Their fuel pumps are designed to wear out their carbs are way down on power unless highly modified afterwards and everything else is just way over priced for what you are getting the only time Ive ever used their stuff is by customer request and that was only if they couldnt be talked out of it.

About as surprising as a telegraph service company closing...


That said, I have a demon - probably just because I don't know any better...
