A friend and I had the pleasure of visiting Glen and Dave in their new "Digs". They have now expanded to a home next door which is where their inventory of new parts and office is now located. Glen has turned the old parts barn and shop in to a Museum with a working shop. Not only does he have....You name it! in model T parts and accessories....the walls are covered with specialized model T tools. The barn is arranged for a walking tour where you can get up close to those items that have always fascinated you. For those that have not been to Chaffin's, the old barn is located directly behind a beautifully restored historical home which is also considered a museum.
Glen was very gracious and took us on a personal tour of his barn which included going up stairs which for us model T lovers was a true trip to Model T Heaven.
Glen and Dave are both very busy folks answering phones, filling orders and helping us walk ins solve our Model T parts needs. We were very privileged on the time both Glen and Dave spent on answering our questions and providing us with what we needed.
Oh Yes!.....We did make a "Donation" at the parts counter to help Chaffin stay in business.
It was a Great Day for us at Chaffin's Garage!
I second what Les says. Here are some pictures from a couple of months ago.

The biggest drawback to Chaffin's that I see is that they're in California and I am in Missouri....
I also visited Chaffin's a couple of months ago and agree wholeheartedly with what Les and Steve said..
Glen and Dave were gracious hosts. Seeing their former parts store which is now converted into a Model T Shop and parts counter was really nice.
Thank you Glen and Dave!
