I bought another '73 2.0 optioned car. It has a really solid tub and is complete. It does run, all I need to do to drive it is install a new master cylinder. Next week the tank gets pulled, MC goes in, five lug gets installed and the madness starts all over again. I really don't need two cars, but sadly, I'm an addict.

Now I'm getting piles of parts back. He shows up, backs up the truck, and starts unloading on my driveway.
I'm the asshole, and he shows no contriteness whatsoever. I can't do much until I get my /6 parts back in toto. What a fuched up situation, he brought back my deep sixes, and I know they never really went to the polisher. I told him I know they never left his shop. What he did was match the two rough ones I had to the two polished ones and said he paid the polisher $300 to do them. What a bullshitter, I KNOW that HE did the two wheels in his shop. God, I wish we still had prairie justice. |

Hits them in the pocket book plus it helps others steer clear of "the headache". If this were the eighties I'd think your mechanic was playing in the snow. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |
