## Founding story (one paragraph)

NPW began in 1969 as a 300-square-foot shop where 20-year-old Larry Pacey rebuilt carburetors under the name National Carburetors. Pacey's involvement in NHRA drag racing shaped the company's deep performance-parts expertise. Through the 1970s and 1980s, the business expanded into performance parts and then full-line traditional parts, becoming a full-service warehouse distributor. Over five decades it grew into one of the largest privately held automotive parts distributors in North America, with leadership passing to the second generation under President & CEO Chris Pacey.
