A horror story!!!
I have a horror story for you guys!!! I changed my left rear regualtor and motor lastweekend!! I was hoping to find just a simple repair job, but man I found pure ignorance at work!!! The previous owner of the car was too cheap to get the window repaired so he locked the window into place with a rotten piece of 2 X 4 wood!! The repair person drilled several sheet rock screws thru the metal frame to hold the wood in place!!!
That site along damn near broke my heart!!! So, the lesson to this story is trust no one with used cars!!!

I had a truck years ago that had an airbag light that would intermittenly come on. After finally getting sick of it, I took it in to a buddy that I trusted who's a mechanic. He opened up the airbag and found that it had been stuffed with crushed beer cans!!! lol
Last summer I was doing some body work for a neighbor on his 65 Impala. In the driver's side quarter panel, I found an empty Jack Daniel's bottle that had been used to fill in around a bunch of bondo!!!!!! That was a funny sight!
