Be prepared to WAIT for a while after you give it to him. He does great work but he isn't getting rich fixing these things and I bet this is his peak time of year.

His body shop is just about the nicest body shop you'll ever see. Feels more like a doctors office.
yep he did an awesome job on mine as well...he is my neighbore ,so if you need me to talk to him let me know

and really, i am more than ok with that. i've been doing alot of thinking lately about getting a new car just for something different. since i have been driving an evo for almost 4 years now, but i've looked and looked and there doesn't seem to be anything out there short of something at least twice the price that would ever be nearly as fun to drive.
what did they offer ya? (if ya don't wanna say, pm me)

the suby will be paid off soon and i'm lookin at all kinds of cars and options.

yes sir. problem being no one is buying cars right now. so it doesn't make sense for them to give me the real value of the car (not the value of the sale but the car itself) if no one is willing to pay that amount.

hey paul, couple of us are rolling down the waterfront around 8ish, care to join?

everyone listen up, this is the god of the pittsburgh thread speaking.

evol.ved and i are meeting at the advanced auto parts in homestead (near sunoco) at 8:15 then heading over to the stacks.

around 10 i am heading in to south side to see my friends band play. i think they're a metal band, i actually haven't heard them play before. not even sure if they are any good or not, but anyone else that wants to come along is more than welcome.
