No wonder the guy I just talked to didnt like my $3500 price to repaint his Stang. Must have saw that thread :wak
And I like how people think Mike Lavalle “invented” true fire :chair :chair :chairjust got a sale flier from napa. CP 440 for $59 gl. gonna order me some of that
cant log on for 12 hours due to my move and look what happens :blink:
looks good so far jimmowe just got in an 06 GTO 6.0l ls2 with a 6spd std trans. 22k miles. be glad to sell it to you for this project :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:
But what you have looks good to 😉Well the thing with dealership’s is all parts get run through the parts dept so on the books the bodyshop doesnt make any money on those parts. Kinda hard to show a profit when 1/2 the repair doesnt count towards your department
I hear a lot of that going on. My buddy that works a a place that locates and processes junk cars across the country. he took a 10k pay cut last year. he has made some deals that is bringing in the company more money than its ever made and they still havent brought his pay back up.
if the US could regulate this the same way it might help.
Best of luck with it all there Jimmo[b]Doright wrote:[/b]

its all gonna be new doright. when i gutted it everything came out.
as far as the second floor sagging, most of it was just the 200 year old 7×7 beams they had running 25 ft with no support under them. a few spots where the joists were all hacked up from plumbing and electricalwell work is coming to a halt these next few weeks. gotta get things moved out of the place i’m in right now. here’s some updated pix though

hope my house doesnt turn out like any of those :blink:
