Last summer I stopped by VB and picked up a couple of parts. Most of the 
complex is dedicated to truck parts (Long Motor Corp.)and the LBC portion is 
somewhat of an afterthought. Along with a couple of racks of floor mats, 
etc., there are 2-3 LBCs on display by the parts counter on the LBC side of 
things. The gentleman behind the counter was nice enough, and proficient at 
his job, but did not seem to be an enthusiast. He did mention that the owner 
of the company "kinda liked those little cars". This visit took place in 
July and I didn't see any LBCs in the lot.

Now, why did I make a trip to VB? Well, because it two-and-a-half days into 
a visit with my mother, who resides in an assisted living facility about 10 
minutes away from VB .... AND I HAD TO GET OUT HER APARTMENT FOR A LITTLE 
WHILE BEFORE I WENT TOTALLY FRIGGIN' INSANE, that's why.
