The British parts place was on Shawnee Mission Pkwy, but he had another store down around Westport, on Broadway I think. East side north of Westport Rd. The owners name was Frank something. Can't recall the last name. I hated that job. One day I just decided I didn't want to work there anymore and didn't show up on a Saturday. His wife called me at home and I just told her I quit.

Just east of Neiman? You might remember me. My GF was a coal black haired girl with the looks of a young Cher, but with tits, and we came up in an
green MGB and/ or a Pumpkin Midget. Both were rubber baby buggy bumper models. I didn't buy too much there as his prices were anything but fair, but left enough cash behind.

Frank was not happy when I bought my Piranha ignition from a place in NKC where appearance he bought his... The guy said something about calling about it and sold it to me at Frank's cost, don't recall going back much after that bonus.

There was a place on SM and Metcalf but by that time it was Yamaha. Ever meet Joe Engle?

Yeah, that was the place. And no, I don't remember any particulars about any customers, lol. That was close to 30 years ago.

I do remember Frank's last name now. Stoddard.

Just weeks after closing on the Country Club Plaza, Plaza III the Steakhouse is set to make a comeback in Overland Park.

Its owners, Haddad Restaurant Group, have signed a lease for 12631 Metcalf Ave. They said their clientele would be better served by a "smaller, neighborhood-oriented location."

Interesting, looks like it'll be in the strip mall with Minskys and the peanut.

Two south plaza establishment and a former plaza tenant. I guess this is the restaurant version of white flight.

Really good steak. Really overpriced.

Plaza is going through quite a phase right now. Business rent there must really suck...

I could get a really good steak ant Jimmy and Mary's or Jess and Jims for a lot less.

That strip mall is not a destination by any means. Hard to believe they are even going to try this.

I saw the same attempt by Merlot's (here in Georgia) moving from an isolated building in John's Creek to a strip mall in Suwanee - Just won't work.

Rent is probably a lot cheaper.
