Wish I had gotten that lucky. :rolleyes:

You are a very fortunate person. Congrats on the purchase.

Thank you guys. So far so good. And yes, shifted better than before it wouldn't leave first gear. LoL.

Glad to hear you got that worked out.

sweet deal. Good shop you have there. He coulda got ya for a tranny swap if he wanted.

I was thinking that too. Nice to know there are still some honest places around!

Yep...just awhile back with my car, it looked like I needed a new radiator...it appeared to have a hole. So the shop owner looked at it and said it needed a new radiator. He took a close look, tightened up the upper radiator hose, then replaced my radiator cap, and then it held pressure fine and saved us over 200bucks. Just have to find the right places.

Keep that shop in mind, nice to see an honest place there... nice luck on that!

Yes, there are still some good shops out there. A customer of ours once brought in his company car for an anti-freeze leak, after bringing it to the dealer seven times to find the same leak. It turned out to be the water pump gasket; the customer gave us the go ahead to replace the pump as well. The service manager at the dealer accused us of "over repairing" the car. I guess we should have had the customer return six more times... :rolleyes:
