Jan. 31--BYRON, Ga. -- Bill Bonbrake has loved old things for nearly as long as he can remember, old cars in particular.

He has turned his love of cars into a successful classic car auction business -- Performance Auctions -- and a dealership -- The Generation Gap. He credits his daughter, Traci Geib, with encouraging him to modernize his businesses.

When Traci came to work full-time for her father eight years ago, she advised him to make some changes, Bonbrake said.

"She said, 'Dad, I think we need a fax machine and I think we need a computer,' " Bonbrake recalled.
