When your 3rd Gen Camaro just has beat your buddy’s Countach out on that dusty desert trail, only Super Shops will do! Super Shops ads were all over the radio in the 80s, though TV ads might have been more seldom seen. Everyone went there for their Edelbrock intake, Holley carb, and BFG Comp T/As. Mail order was a thing, of course, but the local convenience of swinging by the store, maybe meeting some like-minded gearheads and making sure your car was seen was irresistible…until the late 90s when the nationwide performance parts chain folded.
