Car Parts & Accessories
Over the next few years, the 1924 Model T Touring was assembled and is
currently on display in MAC's showroom today. This Model T is typical
of a restoration that an individual hobbyist can achieve at home on a
low budget. Doug continued on with his hobby, getting the new Hemmings
airmail subscription each month, and could be found with his face
buried in it as soon as it arrived. He began traveling around with
Carol and the boys throughout the Northeast, one time going as far as
North Dakota to buy Model T parts or cars. Throughout these years the
McIntosh family enjoyed memorable excursions to flea markets, car
shows, and driving tours in search of the next hot bargain. In 1977,
Doug had an opportunity to take early retirement from his land survey
business and to reflect on what would be his next entrepreneurial
venture. He decided to develop a Model T parts catalog, and offer a
toll free "WATTS LINE" phone number and great personal service. Doug,
and his first employee, his wife, Carol, opened the doors of MAC's
Antique Auto Parts in the 2,000 square foot rear garage of their home
on Locust Street in Lockport, New York. Carol helped out with invoicing
and payables, allowing Doug to find sources for parts, provide
service, and package orders. They advertised their first Model T
catalog for distribution in Hemmings Motor News and the Model T Club
periodicals, and at the Dunkirk and Hershey car shows. The first
catalog had 1,081 parts and in 1979, gross sales were $200,000. As the
decade came to a close, MAC's hired their third employee, Charles Main.
