The data you are asking for is pretty much something so vast that your friend
really should purchase existing software (most likely with online connectivity)
with a license for updates.
Maybe a better database for you to build for him is a customer/contact DB. You
could add features such as a mailing list to remind them about oil changes,
brake inspections, etc. You could even include a way to add coupons to the email
body.

Subject: [MS_AccessPros] Automating an Automobile Repair Shop
I am creating an application for an automobile mechanic friend of mine to manage
his shop. Among other assistance that I am sure I will need, there are two
things that I know right off the bat that I need help with:
1. Is there a database that I can have access to that will give me all the
makes, models and years of vehicles that are on the road so the office manager
can simply click and add a vehicle to the customer's profile?
2. Is there a database that I can have access to that will give me parts for
these makes, models and years, along with the current price?
I am guessing that these services are available for a fee, but I figured that
this was the best place to start.
Oh, I do have a third question: Does anyone know of a template specifically for
an automobile shop? I am using Access 2007 and did not see any templates that
were close on the MS website
Thank you in advance,
David
