Pumpkn210 Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Because I am Handy I got lots of friends that lean on me for mechanic stuff. I love helping people out and fixin friends cars for next to nothing, but there are some cars that just become a thorn in my side. Calley has a 2.0 Yetta that I dont have to work on anymore. I wish that was cause the car quit breaking down or she sold it. But NO, her a Kiel decided that I shouldnt have to work on it so much and now take it somewhere. Shes selling it when its paid off in a couple months, and getting a Datsun! :w00t: But today I get to work on Sam's 79 Ford Econoline! Its Big and Blue, with matching wide blue turbines and usually has a dirt bike or two in it! Couple weeks ago had to get junk yard front springs cause one of his BROKE :blink: Today we gotta do the power steering pump...maby. Wish me luck, and Keep Wrenchin! Quote Link to comment

MAG58 Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I amazed by the number of people that ask me to fix their cars and then also expect me to do it for free. WTF? If it's going to take me 5 hours to fix your car, I should be paid for it. Or you can do it. OR... you can send it to the dealer to really get gouged. Your call. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 The local place charges about $100 an hour and then applicable tax!!!. That could range from 5 to 14 hours pay for some. Do the math, stay home, go buy a manual, learn to fix your Datsun. (or everything else) Quote Link to comment
