Damn! $350.00! Well wait, yes I agree, seeing as he has to do the outside and inside...

OMG-Im Repulsed! The Underside Of My Lawnmower Is Cleaner Than That.

One time i was valeting as a favor to my sisters company. I had to park a car that was pretty close to that one, but it wasnt a 2000 either, maybe early 90's. It reaked of vitamins, and was just plain nasty.

Props to taking that on!

I thought the guy was just doing it out of ignorance, thinking he was in 3rd and not worrying about shifting anymore cuz the revs weren't too high...maybe he knew he was in 5th but just didn't want to fess up...got the cool or cheap 5-spd but doesn't like to shift! I don't have any problem with it if the guy knows what he's doing and wants to lug it a little, but tdekany made it sound like the guy was completely clueless...and let's face it, what's the chances a guy who keeps his interior *like that* is a synchro-head?

Anyone that is foolish enough to let his dog explode in the car and then have bodywork done by someone found at a 7-11. should pay through the nose.

I just got home - I only washed the outside. Turns out the who ever worked on the body put wax underneath the clearcoat!

the dealer didn't want the car in that shape so he donated it to Salvation army. ($10800 write off)

I also did the SAAB's interior that was in ""immeculate" condition.
$300.00 for all. and I am driving the saab to Arkansas saturday and fly back tuesday. (more $$$ for Tommy boy!)
