Maybe switch to synth, might smoke less. :D

Sorry for all your troubles GW, just getting caught up on your thread.

Greg,

Sorry for the troubles you have had but thanks for posting because it let's others know they are not the only ones. I am always amazed how most shops always have the car back for "refreshing" which I believe to be code for nagging problems. Even here you will see shops with cars they built that are always in the shop background. I am pretty sure they are not there for storage ;) .

Greg - sucks to hear of all the continued troubles with the car. We all know bugs need to get worked out with new/refreshed (or in your case "Redueced") cars, but that is not the case hear. Hopefully this is the last of your troubles so you can enjoy it for the summer. BTW - the heads look better painted! I'm sure Kenny & Steve will agree! :rofl:

Skip - Lurch video...LMAO! Classic!!

Those HEADS are the prettiest thing on that car...... and probably the cheapest "tweak" or "mod" on the whole invoice too !!!!

BTW -- If they'd have just paid attention to the details a LOT more, someone's pooper might smoke less... 'cause it's gotten another good reamin'....

Yes they are - and I truly THANK YOU for making the car look WAY WAY better.

Amazing what such a simple detail can do.


Since you're a pro shop -- and mention the invoice.... I never looked at ANY of the invoices until the end when things went so south. I really didn't care what they were doing or what was being billed... it looked good when I'd visit - it was making big headway to completion so I KNEW they were working on it - and "work" costs money and parts cost money.... no quibbles there. It wasn't until I found all these issues that I started to take notice.
