and have been called out more than a few times. In this soap opera that I call a car build, it was discovered that the wheel base was 3 inches too long. Time to roll the car out of the garage and get it to someone that actually has a brain and a boat load of talent. Jim Pettigrew to the rescue!

First We had to get the car up in the air and level and Jim made a jig for the front. I am glazing over this, but great care was taking to insure the car was perfectly level, secure where it would not move and referenced on the floor in case it did move that we woulld see it and could move it back to the correct position.

Don't people just L O V E paying a "pro" shop (like Jakes) to mess up their cars... and then pay a new pro shop to rebuild it correctly!?!?!?!

You wonder why people go "postal"....

Any idea how Jakes managed to build your chassis 3" too long??? WTF! BTW this is not the first "issue" I've heard of with this particular shop.
