Super Shops Nostalgia

volaredon said

yup teh one that used to be in Chicago Heights IL definitely got more of my money than they should have in the 80s.... BFGoodrich, Erson, and MSD were all teh brands they carried.... I forget what brand of rims they had, didn't look very close at them then as I could never afford them. LOTS of Stupid-shops (as many from the area called them) parts, went into my 75 Cordoba.....

I browsed that store in the mid 80’s when I was piss-poor when you’d hear the Super Shops commercials on likely WLUP or maybe it was Oldies Magic 104 w/Dick Biondi !! The announcer said “Get the Erson cam”!! It was in the early 90’s when I finally did get the Erson cam (a big block TQ20 The Performer) and kit for a 70 D200 Camper Special. Was on North Avenue (64) right? Or was it Lake (20)? Memory is foggy, haven’t been back to that area since then, but Was like a kid in a candy store for sure
