You have to love selective memory. Admittedly there's a diminished
old-timers contribution to the list, but recollecting Portland,
Oregon and not mentioning the infamous Charles Heitz and his All
Foreign Auto Rebuilding & Parts, Inc. seems a total perversion of
history. To put it bluntly, today's "scammers" have nothing on
Charlie. His name still comes up whenever the question of marque
purity is discussed.
